It is that time of year, so I thought I’d mention that my book YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION is very much a thing you can buy for any tech workers in your life. Or yourself!

You can buy it just about anywhere books are sold, or ask your library to grab a copy! https://ethanmarcotte.com/books/you-deserve-a-tech-union/

Three bright red copies of the book “You Deserve a Tech Union” are stacked on a gray wooden surface. The stack is flared slightly, so that the corners of the lower books are peeking out from below.

Peter Olney, retired organizing director of the ILWU and the co-editor of Labor Power and Strategy, described the book as, “A wonderful back-pocket book, perfect for any tech worker interested in powering up and getting a union.” The Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee described the book as “A compelling and galvanizing read — not just for tech workers, but for anyone who is union-curious. ” Nozlee Samadzadeh, a member of the New York Times Tech Guild, said, “ You Deserve a Tech Union is a how-to guide, a history lesson, and a manifesto all in one. Ethan Marcotte starts by laying out the case for unionization in tech, and ends with a rallying cry for using our power as workers. I wish we’d had this book as we organized the New York Times Tech Guild.”
