Joe Hill moved to America from Sweden at age 23 in 1902. He worked as a traveling day laborer, taught himself English, and preceded to write PROTEST SONGS SO SCATHING AND EFFECTIVE that copper magnates had him tried on false charges and killed only 4 years into his songwriting career. His final words were "Don't mourn. Organize" And people did.
We gotta do better here, folks. And not with no AI generation. Pen to paper. Let's go!

"Amazon workers at seven warehouses walked out Thursday morning, launching a strike ahead of the holidays after Amazon failed to meet a bargaining deadline set by the Teamsters union representing the workers.
In a press release, Teamsters declared it "the largest strike against Amazon in US history." Teamsters general president, Sean O'Brien, warned shoppers of potential delays, saying "you can blame Amazon’s insatiable greed."
"We gave Amazon a clear deadline to come to the table and do right by our members. They ignored it," O’Brien said. "These greedy executives had every chance to show decency and respect for the people who make their obscene profits possible. Instead, they’ve pushed workers to the limit and now they’re paying the price. This strike is on them."
The strike will impact warehouses in New York City, Atlanta, San Francisco, Southern California, and Skokie, Ill., with a looming threat that "Amazon Teamsters at other facilities are prepared to join them.""

U.S. #Unionists Press #Biden to Remove Cuba from ‘Terrorism’ List
from #WorldOutlook
By Mark Friedman
November 29, 2024Unionists across the United States are organizing a campaign to get fellow trade unionists, elected officials, and others to sign a letter to President Biden demanding he remove Cuba from the U.S. list of "State Sponsors of Terrorism."
“On October 30th, for the 32nd consecutive year, the #UnitedNations General Assembly overwhelmingly condemned the U.S. embargo on #Cuba. Once again, the global community stood in near-unanimous solidarity with the #Cuban people, recognizing that this decades-long policy is not only cruel and dated but also in direct violation of international law."
