Americans from across the country relocated to the city even as an unprecedented transnational migration brought people from Asia, Europe, and Mexico. Together, these newcomers forged a multiethnic alliance of anarchists, labor unions, and leftists dedicated to challenging capitalism, racism, and often the state. David M. Struthers draws on the anarchist concept of affinity to explore the radicalism of Los Angeles's interracial working class from 1900 to 1930. Uneven economic development created precarious employment and living conditions for laborers. The resulting worker mobility led to coalitions that, inevitably, remained short lived. As Struthers shows, affinity helps us understand how individual cooperative actions shaped and reshaped these alliances. It also reveals social practices of resistance that are often too unstructured or episodic for historians to capture. What emerges is an untold history of Los Angeles and a revolutionary movement that, through myriad successes and failures, produced powerful examples of racial cooperation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Labor movement $z Los Angeles $z Los Angeles $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Radicalism $z Los Angeles $z Los Angeles $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Intercultural communication $z Los Angeles $z Los Angeles $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Race relations $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x General. $x General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE $x Social Classes. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a HISTORY $z United States $x West (AK, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, NV, UT, WY) $x West (AK, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, NV, UT, WY) $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Intercultural communication. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00976084 650 7 $a Labor movement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00990079 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086509 650 7 $a Radicalism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01087015 651 7 $a California $z Los Angeles. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204540 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Working class in American history. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317032303.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C7B7498268DD11EA9C5A9E4D97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
