Field notes
The archive groups material into interviews, articles, audio, photographs, video, and a space for workplace self-representation; named subjects include rail-union leader Alex Gordon, workers at Alstom in Saint-Ouen, and Robert Linhart. It also links a 1975 recording of Ghanaian postal workers canceling stamps, placing the French labor materials alongside an audio artifact from the University of Ghana.
