Hog Wild: Battle for Worker's Rights, Lynn Waltz, University of Iowa Press, Paperback When Smithfield Foods opened its pork processing plant in Tar Heel, North Carolina, in 1992, workers in the rural area were thrilled to have jobs at what was billed as "the largest slaughterhouse in the world." However, they soon left in droves because of the fast, unrelenting line speed and high rate of injury. Those who stayed wanted higher wages and safer working conditions, but every time they tried to form a union, the company quickly cracked down, firing union leaders, assaulting organizers, and setting minority groups against each other. Book is in very good condition. Clean, bright and tightly bound. Text and pages in near fine condition.
