Since the early1800s, there have been labor struggles, struggles against
slavery and struggles for a more equitable distribution of wealth in the
United States. Uris will examine some of that history, including the
formation of labor unions, idealistic and utopian movements for social
justice, peace movements and efforts to bring a better share of the
resources of this continent to all its people.
Dr. Joe Uris is an associate professor (ret.) of history and sociology
at Portland State University, a journalist, and KBOO (Tuesday am) talk
show host. From the early 60s on, Joe organized for peace and social
justice in New York and Portland.
History of Social Justice Organizing is an ongoing series of
presentations by activists and scholars on a wide variety of social
justice organizing topics in Portland and elsewhere.
