What We Are Reading Today: Mutiny

  • Mutiny” is an essential look at the shifting meaning of work, class, and power in modern America

Author: Noam Scheiber

Noam Scheiber’s “Mutiny” is a sharp, deeply reported chronicle of the modern labor movement, specifically focusing on the wave of high-profile unionization efforts at corporate giants. Scheiber, a veteran labor reporter for The New York Times, moves beyond dry statistics to tell a human-centric story of grassroots rebellion. ”

Mutiny” is an essential look at the shifting meaning of work, class, and power in modern America.

While the narrative is undeniably sympathetic to the workers, Scheiber’s wit and investigative rigor prevent it from becoming a mere manifesto. He provides a clear-eyed look at the sophisticated, often ruthless, anti-union tactics deployed by multibillion dollar firms.
