What is the working class people's history of California?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Laurence H. Shoup, author of Rulers & Rebels: A People's History of Early California, 1769-1901. What is the history of California's Indians, the working poor, unions, and immigrants? He tells stories of chilling brutality and tales of solidarity and determination. What are the differences and similarities to what we're facing today? Join us at 10 or email feedback@yourcallradio.org. What lessons can we learn from our history? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Laurence H. Shoup, a labor historian and author of Rulers & Rebels: A People's History of Early California, 1769-1901.
