Fabricant describes a dramatic situation where New York City Department of Education Chancellor Joel Klein tested the strength of the community-teacher alliance by inviting CC9, but not the union, to a crucial meeting CC9 had been attempting to set up for months.

Fabricant, a professor at the City University of New York and an elected union officer, has produced a street manual for policy wonks, a policy guide for organizers and a down-to-earth read for everyone in between.
