Author Steven Hill to speak about American job crisis

As part of UWRF’s Year of Mexico, the English department is hosting a speaking event with Steven Hill on Tuesday, Nov. 10 from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the Chalmer Davee Library in the upper level breezeway.

Steven Hill is a noted writer, lecturer, political professional, and Senior Fellow with the New America Foundation. In Hill’s recently published book, “Raw Deal: How the ‘Uber’ Economy and Runaway Capitalism are Screwing American Works,” he proposes policy solutions that will restore power back to American workers and analyzes the shift to freelance, temporary, and contract work in the United States that threatens the jobs for millions of American workers.

This event is free and open to the public, with a book signing immediately following the lecture. For more information, contact Marshall Toman at marshall.toman@uwrf.edu.
