Songs, stories, poems, pamphlets, and comics, have inspired workers to take action against greedy bosses and helped shape ideas of a more equal world. They also help fan the flames of discontent. Radical social change doesn�t come without radical art. It would be impossible to think about labour unrest without its iconic songs like \"Solidarity Forever\" or its cartoons like Ernest Riebe's creation, Mr. Block.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this vein, The Graphic History Collective has created an illustrated chronicle of the strike--the organized withdrawal of labour power--in Canada. For centuries, workers in Canada--Indigenous and non-Indigenous, union and non-union, men and women--have used the strike as a powerful tool, not just for better wages, but also for growing working-class power. This lively comic book will inspire new generations to learn more about labour and working-class history and the power of solidarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 64\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.3 x 10.8 x 8.3 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 08, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43212373950541,"sku":"9781771134170","price":17.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/5252\/5389\/files\/ItOGFqWPrg9781771134170.webp?v=1783292089","url":"https:\/\/ishookcomics.com\/products\/direct-action-gets-the-goods-a-graphic-history-of-the-strike-in-canada-paperback","provider":"iShook Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
