LABOR HIST: CHICAGO MEMORIAL DAY MASSACRE 1937

While reading the book "Labor's Giant Step" by Art Preis. I heard of these terrible murders. And the murders of such a brave group of workers won't go untold around here. This is a video every union worker needs to witness in order to appreciate a little of what our elders went through to build what we have today. And maybe it will give us an idea of what it will take to keep our unions together in the last days of capitalism. I think gas masks and riot shields will be absolutely necessary to hold a picket.
