Today in labor history, September 3, 2012: Today is Labor Day. In 1894, after sending in the Army and U.S. Marshals to break the Pullman strike, President Grover Cleveland’s popularity was in the toilet. In the immediate wake of the strike, legislation designating a federal Labor Day holiday was rushed unanimously through Congress and arrived on Cleveland’s desk for his signature.

több dolog miatt reblog.
először is fuck yeah munkásmozgalom! :) (azt hiszem, a mozgalmár családból való nagypapám végtelenül boldog lenne, ha ezt látná. persze nem merem neki megmutatni a tumbleret…)
másrészt: drága bátyámnak most van az első hosszú (4 napos) hétvégéje Chicagóban - a mozgóünnep május 1., ami ott szeptember elejére esik :))) (eddig nem értettem, hogy ez hogy jött össze, de így már világos)
