Scholar Jeff Schuhrke convincingly demonstrates that unions in the United States have never been silent or neutral on the question of Palestine. In fact, they have played a key role in the initial Zionist colonisation of Palestine, the foundation of the Israeli state in 1948, supporting US foreign policy commitments to Israel, and the ongoing suppression of the Palestinian liberation movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn his compelling telling of this history, Schuhrke conclusively shows that US unions helped build and maintain the state of Israel. He also shines a light on important exceptions to this rule: instances of US labour solidarity with the Palestinian freedom struggle that point the way forward for today's labour movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47461208097004,"sku":"9798888904558","price":44.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9798888904558-no-neutrals-there.jpg?v=1774962060"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/jeff-schuhrke.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
