This is a book about workingclass identity, consciousness, and selfdetermination. It offers an alternative to middleclass assimiliation and workingclass amnesia. The twentyfive contributors use memoryboth personal and collectiveto show the relationship between the uncertain economic rhythms of workingclass life and the possibilities for cultural and political agency. Manual labor and intellectual work are connected in these multicultural autobiographies of writers, educators, artists, political activists, musicians, and photographers and in the cultural workthe poems, stories, photographs, lectures, musicthey produce. Illustrated with family snapshots, this collectionthe first of its kindincludes the work of a female machinist who is also a poet, a secretary who is also a writer, a poet who worked on the assembly line, a musician who was also a reddiaper baby, and an academic who is recovering the workingclass writing of her father. The consciousness that is revealed in this book makes evident the value of class identity to collective, democratic struggle. The contributors are Maggie Anderson, Steve Cagan, Jim Daniels, Lennard Davis, Masani Alexis de Veaux, Sue Doro, Julie Olsen Edwards, Carol Faulkner, Barbara Fox, Laura Hapke, Florence Howe, David Joseph, Linda McCarriston, Wilma Elizabeth McDaniel, Gregory Mantsios, M.
