In Our Veterans, Suzanne Gordon, Steve Early, and Jasper Craven explore the physical, emotional, social, economic, and psychological impact of military service and the problems that veterans face when they return to civilian life. The authors critically examine the role of advocacy organizations, philanthropies, corporations, and politicians who purport to be “pro-veteran.” They describe the ongoing debate about the cost, quality, and effectiveness of healthcare provided or outsourced by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). They also examine generational divisions and political tensions among veterans, as revealed in the tumultuous events of 2020, from Black Lives Matter protests to the Trump-Biden presidential contest. Frank and revealing, Our Veterans proposes a new agenda for veterans affairs linking service provision to veterans to the quest for broader social programs benefiting all Americans.

Embedded With Organized Labor describes how union members have organized successfully, on the job and in the community, in the face of employer opposition now and in the past. The author has produced a provocative series of essays-an unusual exercise in "participatory labor journalism" useful to any reader concerned about social and economic justice. As workers struggle to survive and the labor movement tries to revive during the current economic crisis, this book provides ideas and inspiration for union activists and friends of labor alike.

Civil Wars In U.s Labor
Birth of a New Workers' Movement or Death Throes of the Old?

From forced trusteeships to hostile inter-union raids, American labour has been gripped by a devastating civil war that has resulted in 30 years of decline. With the economic crises putting more pressure on organised labour than ever and prompting a renewed interest in the subject, it is high time to turn back this trend. Long-time trade union leader and journalist Steve Early goes straight to the root of the problem, arguing that these destructive policies have grown out of the current strategy of labour management collaboration and calling for an entire rebuild.
