Organized Labor versus "The Revolt Against Work" - John Zerzan

UAW sit-down strike in Flint, 1937

Article examining the role of unions in the exploitation of workers, focussing in particular on the US car manufacturing industry from the 1930s to 1970s.

Serious commentators on the labor upheavals of the Depression years seem to agree that disturbances of all kinds, including the wave of sit-down strikes of 1936 and 1937, were caused by the 'speed-up' above all.

The economy is suffering...let it die - Treason pamphlet

Treason pamphlet collecting articles from David Watson, Guerra Sociale, John Zerzan and others. While we do not agree with all of it we reproduce for reference.

If you listen to the various mouthpieces of the system, we live in the best of all possible worlds. We are after all surrounded by a vast accumulation of commodities.
