Interview with Bruce McAttee

View Item Record

Description:

In a free-flowing interview, Bruce McAttee discusses his career as a union official for the United Auto Workers and his activity in the Democratic party. McAttee talks about joining the UAW International staff, internal union politics, becoming the director of the union's Community Action Program, and the UAW's political fundraising efforts. McAttee says that the demise of Buick in Flint was due, at least in part, to the militant activism of that city's UAW local and General Motors' desire to neutralize the union. McAttee is interviewed by retired Michigan State University Professor of Labor Studies John Revitte who also talks about his career, political activity, and time as MSU's faculty grievance officer.
