Susan Stoner is happy to announce
the launching of Black Drop, the 4th book in the Sage Adair
Historical Mystery series.

It got a great review from the American Library Ass'n. which is the librarians' do-purchase bible. 
My favorite bit -  "Sage Adair is a likeable and realistic anchor for this well-written, smartly plotted historical mystery series... 
the series is still accumulating a loyal fan base but each novel brings it closer to the wide acclaim it deserves...."  

Ron Verzuh has produced a video about Joe Hill and will discuss his discoveries along the way.

Micheal Munk will join Lane Poncy and Michael Morrow to discuss a few of Ron's latest interests
and observations on union activities and political intrigues ...  http://www.ronverzuh.ca/

Ron Verzuh

Ron Verzuh is currently a PhD student in history at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, B.C. He is also the former national communications director for the Canadian Union of Public Employees. He completed his years at CUPE heading the union’s international solidarity program. He is the author of two books, several booklets and many articles on subjects ranging from the labour movement to travel, books, news media, movies, food and politics.


Michael Munk was born in Prague in 1934 and escaped from the Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia to Portland in 1939. He received a PhD in politics from New York University after degrees in political science from the University of Oregon and Reed College. He was drafted into the US Army and sent to South Korea and afterwards was a journalist for the leftist New York weekly National Guardian. He taught political science at Stony Brook University, Roosevelt University in Chicago, and Rutgers University in New Jersey for twenty-five years before retiring to Portland.

Since then, his interests and publications have focused on local radical history. Munk has published widely in the Oregon Historical Quarterly, Pacific Northwest Quarterly, The Portland Alliance and The Oregonian, which listed him among Portland's "local literary luminaries"   visit his provocative website: http://www.michaelmunk.com/

Lane and Tim hosted Fifth Monday Labor Radio!
Elizabeth Joy Zarek, (below at left) an organizer for The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) talked about Early Childhood Education Workers (Pre-Kindergarden) and how they are exploited and under-valued with low pay, few benefits, and little protection. And we discovered "The Quilt Project."

The Early Learning Alliance/AFT-Oregon

The Early Learning Alliance/AFT-Oregon is a unique, statewide coalition of child care center directors, owners, teachers and staff as well as parents and community leaders who have joined in a mission to improve the quality of early childhood edu­cation in Oregon. 

CLICK HERE to join ELA today.

ELA's mission

Our mission is to ensure that child care centers have resources to provide living wage jobs; and give families access to high quality, affordable child care. To achieve this goal, we must advance the interests of the key component in a quality education — the workforce that provides it.

A unified organizational voice

We envision a unified organizational voice for the early childhood workforce based in child care centers. As a voice for the child care workforce, we advocate for livable wages, benefits and professional devel­opment — but not at the expense of struggling parents or under-funded child care centers. ELA/AFT-Oregon seeks to shape landmark legislation that would bring greater resources to child care centers and workers throughout the state.

That’s why we are joining together — owners, directors, teachers and staff of child care centers in Oregon — to find funding and public support for early learning. Join our extraordinary organizing effort! Let’s work together to make sure child care centers, and the people who work in them, get the support they deserve.

CLICK HERE to join ELA today.

For more information:  contact Elizabeth Joy Zarek, ELA/AFT-Oregon organizer and longtime early educator, to find out more about the benefits of membership.
