I'm a former factory worker, having spent 33 years in manufacturing.
During that time i was a member of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. I've been a union steward, safety rep, officer, and executive delegate to the local AFL-CIO. I am a strong union supporter, yet i have some very definite criticisms of mainstream unionism. I'll discuss that in depth at a later time.
I have researched Colorado labor history, and i have helped to edit and write a book about a strike of coal miners in 1927:
Slaughter in Serene: the Columbine Coal Strike Reader
I am an activst for progressive social progress and radical economic change. I first became an activist in 1975. I'm also a graphic designer, and i have created a lot of posters for progressive causes. My website is:
Rebel Graphics
