Working Class History by Working Class History Working Class History, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

History is not made by kings, politicians, or a few rich individuals—it is made by all of us. Working Class History presents a distinct selection of people’s history through hundreds of "on this day in history" anniversaries that are as diverse and international as the working class itself. Women, young people, people of color, workers, migrants, indigenous people, LGBTQ people, disabled people, older people, the unemployed, home workers, and every other part of the working class have organized and taken action that has shaped our world, and improvements in living and working conditions have been won only by years of violent conflict and sacrifice. Going day by day, this book paints a picture of how and why the world came to be as it is, how some have tried to change it, and the lengths to which the rich and powerful have gone to maintain and increase their wealth and influence. | Working Class History by Working Class History Working Class History, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
