History Lovers Meeting: When Steelworkers Defined Chicago

Join us for a talk by Doug Nelson about his research and writing on our local steel industry. Nelson is the author of When Steelworkers Defined Chicago, which is more than a chronology of strikes and contracts, it is also a gripping account of how ordinary men and women, immigrants, African Americans, and community activists, banded together to demand dignity, democratize their unions, and transform their country. All History Lover’s Meetings are free and open to the public, donations welcomed.
