Abstract

The article discusses the need for the U.S. labor movement to revitalize itself by setting a goal of organizing one million new members yearly. It highlights the importance of inspiring and supporting grassroots organizing efforts, such as worker-led campaigns at companies like Starbucks and Amazon. The text emphasizes the necessity of investing in growth, launching salting programs, and providing institutional support to achieve this ambitious goal. The author, Eric Blanc, advocates for a shift in labor's organizing strategies to combat economic inequality, racial injustice, and other societal issues through mass unionization efforts.
