I'm very excited to share the cover for a forthcoming @cornellupress.bsky.social book that I sponsored on the International Workers Order (IWO), a 1930-50s immigrant and minority workers' cooperative undone by the Red Scare. The cover art/design is by the inimitable Ben Katchor (Julius Knipl, etc.)
Cover for the forthcoming Cornell University Press/ILR Press book, "From Popular Front to Cold War: The Interracial Left and the International Workers Order, 1930–1954," edited by Elissa Sampson and Robert M. Zecker, with cover art and design by Ben Katchor. The cartoon art depicts a street scene from NYC's Lower East Side, with a boy selling newspapers outside the IWO offices.
