SUMMARY:Blacklisted Mayday book event - Salford
DESCRIPTION:Blacklisted author Dave Smith is coming to Salford for a talk at the Kings Arms\, owned by former Housemartins and Beautiful South singer Paul Heaton. A Mayday event in a pub that gives 10% off on production of your union card!  \nThe book 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. \nYou can by the book at this talk (and get it signed by Dave Smith) or online direct from the publishers. \nShare this:FacebookTwitterTumblrEmailMoreLinkedInRedditPinterestPocketPrint
