SUMMARY:Blacklisted book event - Liverpool
DESCRIPTION:Blacklisted tells the controversial story of the illegal strategies that transnational construction companies resorted to in their attempt to keep union activists away from their places of work. This is a story of a bitter struggle\, in which collusion with the police and security services resulted in victimization\, violence and unemployment\, with terrible effects on families and communities. \nDrawing on first-hand accounts of the workers\, Blacklisted reveals how\, when major construction projects were unionized\, those involved were unlawfully victimized. From the building sites to the High Court\, this is a story of ordinary working people taking on some of the most powerful transnational companies in the world. \nThe book also reveals how blacklisting extended beyond construction activists to environmental campaigners\, journalists\, politicians and academics. And it adds an international perspective with related stories from America and Europe. \nAuthor Dave Smith will be talking about his personal victimisation by state and corporate forces\, the wider issues raised and how we can fight for truth and justice. \nYou can by the book at this talk\, helping to support News From Nowhere one of the country’s great radical bookshops\, or alternatively get it online direct from the publishers. \nShare this:FacebookTwitterTumblrEmailMoreLinkedInRedditPinterestPocketPrint
