Them: More Labor Cartoons by Gary Huck and Mike Konopacki! - edizione con copertina flessibile

There's "Them." And then there's "Us." Fortunately for Us, Gary Huck and Mike Konopacki are not with Them. Which makes sense, of course, since we're not talking about the Best Cartoonists of Big Business. Let the dozens - and dozens - of cartoonists who waffle on foreign policy issues and refuse to acknowledge the realities of a class society, battle it out for that title. These guys are LABOR's Best Cartoonists. No contest. They've taken their stand in the Them-vs.-Us conflict that's often - but not often enough - referred to as the class struggle. Their art reflects how they feel about the working class and what they think of the politicians and bosses who comprise that powerful and dangerous minority that rules America. Their cartoons speak directly to working people: pointedly addressing their needs and desires while exposing - with wit, whimsy and irony - the empty rhetoric, shameful greed, and conniving lies of the politicians and bosses who serve the interests of the rich. Their cartoons make us laugh and help us keep our sanity at the same time that they urge us into battle to create a better world. [From the Foreword by Michael Funke]
