It would be interesting to hear the reactions of some of the more pro-union guys to this article. Do you view it as positive or negative?
Interesting question; overall I would say the idea of linking the Labour movement to other social justice movements might well be a good idea to get more members, increase respectability and so on. On the other hand... if certain Unions are seen as being tools of people like Sharpton then...
Of course there's nothing whatsoever new about the link between US unions and the US civil rights movement.
