Michael Gould-Wartofsky was born and bred in New York City. He organized his first sit-down strike in 1st grade against bad lunch food. As a high schooler, he helped launch a citywide network called New York Youth Bloc, which mobilized young people in the schools and the streets against corporate control, school budget cuts, and the invasion of Iraq. He spit spoken word and somehow won the city's Urban Word Poetry Slam for 2003. Check out his work in Nation Books' Poets Against the War.
Here at Harvard, Michael has been involved in lots of student solidarity work. He helped found the Student Labor Action Movement (SLAM) and worked on its Justice for Janitors campaign, which recently won a 5-dollar raise for the university's lowest paid workers. In a much-needed break from the USA, he was honored to spend the past summer in Argentina working in an aluminum factory under workers' control.
