Product Information
The story of a union organizer who found a second career in community organizing and helped a Jim Crow city become a better place. Ernest Thompson dedicated his life to organizing the powerless. This lively, illustrated personal narrative of his work shows the great contribution that people's coalitions can make to the struggle for equality and freedom. Thompson cut his teeth organizing one of the great industrial unions, the United Electrical Radio and Machine Workers of America, and brought his organizing skills and commitment to coalition building to Orange, New Jersey. He built a strong organization and skillfully led fights for school desegregation, black political representation, and strong government in a city he initially thought of as a "dirty Jim Crow town going nowhere." Thompson came to love the City of Orange and its caring citizens, seeing in its struggles a microcosm of America. This story of people's power is meant for all who struggle for human rights, economic opportunity, decent housing, effective education, and a chance for children to have a better life. Ernest Thompson (1906-1971) grew up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, on a farm that had been given to his family at the end of the Civil War. The family was very poor and oppressed by racist practices. Thompson was determined to get away and to obtain power. He migrated to Jersey City, where he became part of the union organizing movement that built the Congress of Industrial Unions (CIO). He became the first African American to hold a fulltime organizing position with his union, the United Electrical Radio and Machine Workers of America (UE). He eventually headed UE's innovative Fair Employment Practices program and fought for equal rights and pay for women and minority workers. Thompson also helped build the National Negro Labor Council, 1951-1956, and served as its director of organizing. In 1956, under the onslaught of the McCarthy era, UE was split in two, and Thompson lost his job. His wife, Margaret Thompson, brought the local school segregation to his attention. Ernie "Home" Thompson organized to desegregate the regional schools, building strong coalitions and political power for the black community that ultimately served all the people of Orange.

Reviews
""Thompson helped people see that what's morally right is politically astute and that the racist and classist power structures you are fighting against want nothing more than for you to fight among yourselves, rather than organize. Organizing, when it's done right, when people really listen to themselves and each other, isn't just about winning a race or a campaign. It is a collective act of love. More than anything, Ernie Thompson shows us how to love."", ""This book encourages the reader to not be complacent with injustice anywhere and to draw from their own strengths to build coalitions that work to actualize a People's Democracy rooted in universal equality (equity)."", ""The re-release of Ernie Thompson's book about his rich life as an anti-racism union organizer should be read by young (and other) human beings who have decided to hold church in the streets, courts, state houses, and ballot boxes in the south (and other) parts of the U.S., against the white nationalism of the fake GOP."", Thompson helped people see that what's morally right is politically astute and that the racist and classist power structures you are fighting against want nothing more than for you to fight among yourselves, rather than organize. Organizing, when it's done right, when people really listen to themselves and each other, isn't just about winning a race or a campaign. It is a collective act of love. More than anything, Ernie Thompson shows us how to love., ""Homeboy Came to Orange is an essential read for anyone who wants to organize for change in their towns, schools, churches or communities. It is a story that is at once inspiring, challenging, and unwavering.""
