I lived through that historical moment, and became a member of the Laborers Union during the late ‘50s in south- western Idaho. I remember a lot of corporate pressure against unionism. The corporate stance was that you had a “right” to join a union, but you were still seen as something of a traitor to the organization where you were employed.

Thank you for that information. I lived part of that. I felt at several places I really like this article. Thank you.
