Title: Our members be unlimited :a comic about workers and their unions /Sam Wallman. Author: Wallman, Sam,(author,).(illustrator.). Location: 331.88 WAL Subject: Comics (Graphic works) Graphic novels. Labor unions--Comic books, strips, etc. Employees--Comic books, strips, etc. ISBN: 9781925713053 (paperback) Collation: 252 pages :chiefly colour illustrations ; 23 cm. Summary Note: "A timely and inspiring work of comics journalism - the history of unions and why we need them (and a first-hand account of working in an Amazon warehouse). Workers of the world, unite! From comics-journalist Sam Wallman comes a thoughtful plunge into the history of unions. Through distinctive art and sharp-eyed reporting, Wallman ushers us into the hidden aisles of 21st-century labour conditions, and shows us recent labour movement and union triumphs - all while framing current conditions against the history of unions and the earliest rallying cries for workers' rights. It's an entry point for younger generations, and a reminder for workers who have had their livelihood reduced by capitalist pressures. It's also a primer for those new to the power of collective action. From an Amazon warehouse in Melbourne (where Sam worked for a year) to Britain and Bangladesh, to Walmart in China and the pioneering strikes of Australian gig workers, this book is a highly original and visual exploration of the power of unions." - Book jacket.
