A Labor Day salute to all workers and the memory of all those who toiled and fought to make today a holiday. Above is a clip from the truly wonderful 1979 documentary on the IWW, 'The Wobblies,' with the former silk weaver Sophie Cohen talking about the 1913 Paterson silk strike. Directed by Stewart Bird and Deborah Shaffer, this doc should be essential viewing in all schools—it's now available on Youtube in poor quality, but, if you ever get the chance, see it in the cinema to be totally immersed in the movement. #laborday #iww #wobblies #laborhistory
