Dr. Lane Windham Wins The 2018 David Montgomery Award

[body]

Dr. Lane Windham ('15, History) has won this year's prestigious Organization of American Historians' David Montgomery Award with cosponsorship by the Labor and Working-Class History Association, for the best book on a topic in American labor and working-class history. Her recent book entitled Knocking on Labor’s Door: Union Organizing in the 1970s and the Roots of a New Economic Divide, counters the argument that the power of the labor movement declined in the 1970s as unions stopped organizing and workers turned away from unions.       https://gradschool.umd.edu/newsroom/4040
