 , desperate man begging for jobs\, a Teamsters Local with 175 members deci
 ded to take on the Minneapolis business community’s rabid anti-union Ass
 ociation. \nGrowing rapidly to a militant force of committed workers 5\,00
 0 strong\, they battled the cops\, the hired thugs and the union-busting p
 oliticians. Some battles were bloody\, all of them were fraught with dange
 r. \nNever backing down\, IBT Local 574 eventually broke the grip of the b
 usiness community\, making Minneapolis a union town and inspiring union or
 ganizing across the Midwest. \nAuthor John Hanson recalls the stories his 
 father told him about those heroic men and women and the fight to establis
 h a democratic union. His is a poignant\, personal story that speaks a uni
 versal language of courage and justice. \n  \nAbout the Author\nJohn’s 
 interest in unions and labor history began at home. His dad was a union or
 ganizer and strike committee member in the famous 1934 Teamsters strike in
  Minneapolis. His father was a great storyteller with a sharp memory for d
 ates and events. After studying\nat the University of Minnesota and Willia
 m Mitchell College of Law\, John built a career across many roles—union 
 and nonunion\, government\, mediation\, and quality improvement work\, all
  the while immersing himself in the rich history of the Minneapolis immigr
 ant experience and the labor movement.
