The most powerful force in the world isn't billionaires or governments. It's working people who decide to act together.

This Is How We Win documents what happens when people use that power. It opens with Minnesota's January 2026 economic shutdown, when unions and community organizations united to force ICE out of the state. It zooms out to the global history of general strikes that have toppled dictators and won workers the eight-hour day. And through firsthand testimony, labor history, and on-the-ground reporting, it draws practical lessons from the organizers and workers who are building our collective future.

Regular people have always had the power to stop business as usual and transform our conditions by withdrawing our labor and our consent. For anyone who has ever felt the weight of a system that wasn't built for them: our solidarity carries the seeds of a better world.
