SUMMARY:Book Tours: An Evening with Chris Smalls
DESCRIPTION:What can the history of the labor movement teach us about work\, power\, and collective change? \nJoin the Stowe Center for Literary Activism for a conversation with Chris Smalls about his new book\, When the Revolution Comes: A Fight for the Future of the Working Class. The book offers a firsthand account of one of the most closely watched labor campaigns in recent history\, exploring the challenges\, strategies\, and experiences that shaped the effort. \nIn conversation with Anita Durkin\, Unit Chair of the Stowe Center’s union\, Smalls will reflect on the history and evolution of labor organizing in the United States\, the role of workers in shaping social and economic change\, and the contemporary significance of these movements. \nThrough discussion of the book and the broader history it engages\, this program invites audiences to consider how stories of labor\, activism\, and collective action continue to inform public conversations about work and democracy today. \nRegister to Attend in Person                Register to Attend Virtually\n \nAbout the Speakers\nChris Smalls\, Photo taken by Kennedi Carter \nAnita Durkin \n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\nChris Smalls\nChris Smalls is the co-founder and former president of the Amazon Labor Union.
