I learned so much from this book and will forever be the friend that’s like “did you know the gays hate Coors beer because they’re homophobic and anti-union” like SOLIDARITY!!! There’s so much to cover in terms of labor history especially since so much of it isn’t brought up in public education. This book was inspiring to say the least and opened my eyes up to the intersectional struggles of the labor movement!!

fight like hell is a great primer to many of the untold parts of the epic american labor fight. i am more enlightened and educated now than when i started this book. plenty of exciting jumping off points for further research and reading. kelly does a terrific job diving into the hidden side of american labor (i.e. everything that is not exclusively white, male, blue-collar) and showing how critical those fights and communities were for the protections american workers have today. particularly excited to read more about lucy parsons, and reading everything else that kim kelly puts out.
