Much of Aronowitz' criticism of what the labor movement doesn't do, rings true, as does his call for a more open socialist orientation. But 40 after the capitalist class started its aggressive attack on unions we need more than lists of what labor should do. We need to talk about how we are going to do things differently, not just that we should based on a real understanding of where workers are politically, organizationally and ideologically.

A new book by Penny Lewis offers valuable insight into the true nature of the movement to end the war in Vietnam.
