The Spirit Lives

On May 26, 1937, members of the Steel workers organizing committee were gunned down by members of the Chicago police department in what would be known as the Memorial Day Massacre. Some 73 years later, our brothers and sisters in Wisconsin have also been attacked. Not shot in the back, as in Chicago but stabbed in the back by the very people elected to protect their rights and livelihoods. These Union members are under attack as all unions are across the nation . These lawmakers may have killed collective bargaining but they will not kill our spirit. In the end we will prevail. This is one chapter, not the end of the story.
