This space is dedicated to the proposition that we need to know the history of the struggles on the left and of earlier progressive movements here and world-wide. If we can learn from the mistakes made in the past (as well as what went right) we can move forward in the future to create a more just and equitable society. I will be reviewing books, CDs, and movies I believe everyone needs to read, hear and look at as well as making commentary from time to time.

*Labor’s Untold Story- Reclaiming Our Labor History- Early Knights Of Labor Leader Terrence Powerley- Prototype Of A Labor Skate

Click On Title To Link To Wikipedia's Entry For Terence Powderly. This is an up close and personal look at what a young labor militant turns into when he or she does not have a revolutionary perspective. More, much more later on this character out of the early American labor movement.


Every Month Is Labor History Month

This Commentary is part of a series under the following general title: Labor’s Untold Story- Reclaiming Our Labor History In Order To Fight Another Day-And Win!

As a first run through, and in some cases until I can get enough other sources in order to make a decent presentation, I will start with short entries on each topic that I will eventually go into greater detail about. Or, better yet, take my suggested topic and run with it yourself.
