Weir's many writings covered rank-and-file union politics, focusing on as he liked to put it, "unions that stay on the job." In this 2 hour interview/discussion with Chris Carlsson, himself a longtime publisher and writer (''Processed World, Shaping San Francisco''), many ideas about contemporary strategies for organizing, facing technical change, automation, etc. are broached.
