Seeking panelists on the CIO's Public Sector Unions in the 1930s and 1940s: SCMWA, UFWA and UPWA

[williamand...@gmail.com]

I am seeking panelists for presentations on the CIO's public sector unions in the 1930s: SCMWA and UFWA, which was later merged into UPWA. They negotiated some of the first public sector collective bargaining agreements and practiced social unionism before being destroyed during the Cold War.  I wrote about their successes in higher education in an article published last year, and plan on writing a series of future articles.

Please let me know if you would be interested in participating on a panel concerning the CIO's role in the public sector at next year's LAWCHA conference.
