| Abstract: |
In 1981, a small group of individuals acted in concert to organize and agitate within
the District Council of Carpenters in New York City and some of its twenty-two locals
in an effort to dislodge their corrupt leaders. Calling themselves Carpenters for
a Stronger Union (CSU), they publicly challenged their elected officials. The records
of the Carpenters for a Stronger Union include election materials, newsletters, flyers,
NLRB decisions, correspondence, typescripts and newspaper clippings.
