Israeli Authorities Seek to Dismantle Workers' Advice Center
with Assaf Adiv, National Coordinator, Workers'

workers testify to the contrary. At present, 600 mostly construction workers, depend on WAC's organizing activities.

Revitalizing the Labor Movement
with Elaine Bernard, Harvard Trade Union Program
