#LibraryUnions
It’s Labor Day weekend and that means it’s a great time to teach kids about the context of the holiday. I’ve compiled a list of books for a variety of age ranges that talk about labor and unions. Feel free to add more!

If you could create a 15-week undergrad seminar on the history of labor and unions, what events and people would you be sure to include?

Working for Amazon for one terrible year helped radicalize me. One year after quitting Amazon for a unionized #library job I became a shop steward. After a year I joined my union’s executive board. Two years later I was union president.

Amazon workers in Quebec unionized last year.

This week, Amazon closed its warehouse operations in Quebec.

Amazon denied the closures were related to unionization, but it has a track record of crushing unions in America.

Union busting is disgusting — and a global problem.

Unions had gained a foothold in one of the company’s warehouses in the province, though Amazon would not say if there was a connection.
