Book Description:
United Students Against Sweatshops (USAS) heads a wave of anti-sweatshop organizing that has reached over two hundred American college campuses in the past three years. From the Northeast to the Southwest, at public and private, large and small universities, students have one demand: clothing bearing university logos must be produced under healthy, safe and fair working conditions. This short, punchy, yet sharply analytic book, written by USAS activists and an expert journalist, provides a record of a new mass campaign and a tool for the realization of its goals.
