about the bookMotown and the Making of Working-Class Revolutionaries offers a fresh perspective on class, race, and revolution in the United States. Drawing on more than forty hours of interviews with former members of the League of Revolutionary Black Workers, Scott and katz-fishman share the rich story of the League, including the women and students. That story includes the history of the automotive industry in Detroit, the 1967 Detroit Rebellion, and the wildcat strike that sparked the Dodge Revolutionary Union Movement (DRUM). The authors describe the rise of the League from 1968 to 1971. They explore the centrality of struggle and political education as the League split and a section of League comrades moved into revolutionary organizations and social movement spaces, many of which remain active today. League comrades share their analysis of the current moment and staying the course of revolutionary struggle.

At long last! Here is the story of the League of Revolutionary Black Workers, one of the most important working-class movements in U.S. history, as told by the very people who made it and lived it. Reflection on the experience of the League and the lessons we must draw from it and from the revolutionary political organizations that developed out of it could not be more vital at this barbarous time. Every social justice activist and proletarian intellectual must read it and discuss how to apply the lessons of our revolutionary parents, grandparents, and ancestors to the contemporary working-class struggle for an end to capitalist exploitation and to the racism, sexism, and other oppressions that capitalism generates. —William I. Robinson, Distinguished Professor of Sociology, University of California at Santa Barbara and author of Epochal Crisis: The Exhaustion of Global Capitalism
Motown and the Making of Working-Class Revolutionaries is an essential contribution to the understanding of a transformative period in post-World War II United States capitalism. It reveals, in deeply personal narratives, the formation of a workers’ movement in the automotive industry that challenges both race and class oppression in the factories and within the UAW. It’s a history that few are aware of, but all can learn from. It’s history that matters. Today.
—Gene Bruskin, activist, veteran labor organizer, and playwright
Motown and the Making of Working Class Revolutionaries is an exceptionally powerful analysis of the 1969 formation and history of the League of Revolutionary Black Workers. These workers in the Detroit automobile industry developed into working class revolutionaries who studied and struggled for social transformation at the point of production and beyond. They took on the exploitative automobile industry and embedded themselves in the worldwide class struggle against white supremacy and imperialist capitalism. Their voices are clear and incredibly potent with critical lessons for today.

We have all read and heard the different analyses by different people in their books
where they summarized the history of the League of Revolutionary Black Workers. This
time we wanna set a lot of this stuff straight.

How do you become a revolutionary in the 1960s and go through numerous transitions
but remain a revolutionary today? That story being told by the people who lived those
decades can be very significant for some of the critical questions I hear.

~ Jerome Scott
General Baker, whose life, analysis, and struggle were central to the formation of the League, summed up the shifts in history and what the times today require of revolutionaries:
We gotta make thinkers into fighters and fighters into thinkers. . . . Today is not like the 1960s. The 1960s left us with people who fought and refused to think, and people who thought and refused to fight. It took us twenty years to try to make thinkers into fighters and fighters into thinkers. We're in a long, difficult battle. We gotta have a protracted outlook.
As part of the League, we began our lifelong process of study. We developed a method that worked well for point-of-production workers and for students. Many had not gone to college or studied Marxism, or any theory, before. Collective reading, discussion, and study were at the center of the process. We read the materials together, so educational level was not a limitation. We learned how to pull out the key concepts presented in the readings, which was critical for grappling with their application in our political work. We discussed the material until everyone
understood and grasped the concepts and the analysis of the revolutionary process. We all became learners and teachers.
For the comrades of the League, the dialectics of theory and practice, of study and
struggle marked the beginning. We all joined the League journey through our personal paths to becoming politicized. Some of us were at the founding of the League and some connected along the way. A thread that runs through the League story comes from our southern roots--living and knowing the state violence of white supremacy, gender oppression, and class exploitation. Another thread comes through our study and our political practice. From the early years, the 1960s rebellion and wildcat strikes, to DRUM and the League, Marxism provided theoretical grounding among the leadership and the Executive Board. Most of the rank-and-file
workers came to Marxism in the period of the split in the League and the months long political study. …
This moment requires the American people to deeply understand today's capitalist crises--the interrelated crises of economy, ecology and climate, politics, and society--and to take the offensive to defeat fascism and win the world we envision, need, and want, to become fighters who think and thinkers who fight. …
Survival of humanity and the earth requires all us to take up this revolutionary work. The revolutionary horizon is within our grasp. Make it happen!
