During the '60s and '70s, teachers, sanitation workers and public employees rose up to demand collective bargaining rights in one of the greatest upsurges of workers' demonstrations in history. These workers were able to transform the nature of public employment, win union recognition for millions and ultimately force reluctant politicians to pass laws allowing for collective bargaining and even the right to strike. Strike Back uncovers this history of militancy to provide tactics for a new generation of public employees facing unprecedented attacks on their rights.
