In honor of the late Robert H. Zieger–teacher, scholar, and tireless union activist–the Southern Labor Studies Association announces that it is raising funds for the Robert H. Zieger Prize for Southern Labor Studies. This prize will be awarded every two years to the best unpublished article in southern labor studies submitted by a graduate student or early career scholar, journalist, or activist (“early career” being defined as no more than five years beyond the author’s highest degree). To make a tax-deductible contribution, please go to the Southern Labor Studies website and click on “Donate” or send a check made out to the “Southern Labor Studies Association” and mail it to:
