Book Summary
This book analyzes consumer organizing tactics and the decline of the Seattle
labor movement in the 1920s, as a case study of the U.S. labor movement in the
1920s. The book examines the transformation of the movement after the famous
Seattle General Strike of 1919 by showing that workers organized not only at the
point of production, but through politicized consumption as well, employing
boycotts, cooperatives, labor-owned businesses, and union label promotion. It
pays special attention to the gender dynamics of labor's consumer campaigns, as
trade union men sought to persuade their wives to "shop union," and to the
racial dynamics of campaigns organized by white workers
