The Harvard Trade Union Program presents a book talk with author Al Davidoff, “Unionizing the Ivory Tower,” which chronicles how a thousand low-paid custodians, cooks, and gardeners succeeded in organizing a union at Cornell University. Davidoff, the Cornell student leader who became a custodian and the union’s first president, tells the extraordinary story of these ordinary workers. Davidoff is the co-founder of the National Labor Leadership Initiative and Director of Organizational and Leadership Development with the AFL-CIO’s Solidarity Center.
