No war but class war. Organizing is back! What the Boss Doesn’t Want Us to Know is the first volume to teach the basics of conducting this research and how to use it to build winning campaigns. It explores how to identify corporate decision-makers, profit centers, growth plans, and secondary targets and the kinds of power that activists can use to beat even global giants. This book offers up a radical new practice for investigating employers. The authors propose a member-based, democratic approach to corporate research that will train an army of rank-and-file researchers to investigate and beat the firms that control so much of our lives. Back the Kickstarter via the link in our bio.

Happy birthday to C.L.R. James! James was a Trinidadian historian, writer, and journalist who became a key figure in the fields of postcolonial thought, Marxist theory, and the history of the African diaspora. Born in Port of Spain, Trinidad, James was deeply influenced by the intellectual and political currents of his time, particularly the struggles for independence and racial justice in the Caribbean. His study of the Haitian Revolution remains a groundbreaking contribution to understanding how enslaved people fought for freedom, and it solidified his reputation as a historian of global significance. A passionate Marxist, James was involved in the radical politics of the 1930s and 1940s, aligning with Trotskyism and supporting anti-imperialist struggles. His political activism extended to his work in Britain, the U.S., and the Caribbean. In the 1930s, he became involved with the Workers Party of America and later, in Britain, participated in the intellectual debates of the left, contributing to the development of revolutionary thought in the context of colonialism. Though James faced political exile and personal struggles throughout his life, his legacy continues to shape discussions of race, class, and revolution in the Caribbean and beyond. Explore C.L.R. James titles at the link in our bio.
