A Tribute to Our Dear Friend Beth Shulman

Demos is deeply saddened at the passing of our dear friend Beth Shulman. Beth, who was a Senior Fellow at Demos, had been a lifelong advocate for working people, a leader in the movement to expose abusive employment practices, and a core figure in a national campaign to implement a fair, living wage. Her book, The Betrayal of Work, exposed the inequities of America's economy, and humanized the struggles of millions of working men and women. With Beth's passing we have lost one of the strongest voices for working Americans. But her organizing, writing, and leadership leave us with a legacy of progress we must continue to pursue.
