Reflections from a long life of activism, conflict and creativity, by veteran labor organizer and author Emanuel Fried, of Buffalo, New York.  Recounted here are his modest family origins, marriage into an upper class family, dramatic encounters in his experiences in various factories and union campaigns, as well as his relations with theater and cinema personalities of the 1930s.  Several decades of harassment by the FBI, the local press, and clerical fascists are vividly recalled, with profound lessons for future activists and organizers.

<p>This anthology is a call to resist the free-market ideology so dominant in American culture. It breaks with the silent complicity of official verse, collecting poems which steadfastly envision the revolutionary changes necessary for a future worthy of our common purpose. The geographical range is wide as is the range of styles and themes supporting Resistance. Unusually, the book includes a substantial number of visionary poems, far beyond the limitations of agitprop. In many ways it represents a gathering of the post World War II generation.</p>
