MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History March 6, 1930: 100,000 people demonstrated for jobs in New York City. Demonstrations by unemployed workers, demanding unemployment insurance, occurred in virtually every major U.S. city. In New York, police attacked a crowd of 35,000. In Cleveland, 10,000 people battled police. In Detroit, the Communist Party organized an underemployment demonstration. Over 50,000 people showed up. Thousands took to the streets in Toledo, Flint and Pontiac. These demonstrations led to the creation of the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), sponsored by Republican congressman Hamilton Fish, with the support of the American Federation of Labor, to investigate and quash radical activities.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/unemployment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unemployment</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/huac" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>huac</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/communism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>communism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/policebrutality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>policebrutality</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/greatdepression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>greatdepression</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/riot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>riot</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>police</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/newyork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>newyork</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cleveland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cleveland</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/detroit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>detroit</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flint</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/republican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>republican</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History February 11, 1937: General Motors recognized the United Auto Workers (UAW) following a 44-day sit-down strike in Flint, Michigan, involving 48,000 GM workers. Two months later, company guards beat up UAW leaders at the River Rouge, Michigan plant. On January 11, police armed with guns and tear gas tried to storm the plant. Strikers repeatedly repelled them by throwing hinges, bottles and bolts at them. Fourteen strikers were injured by police gunfire during the strike.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flint</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SitDownStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SitDownStrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/gm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gm</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uaw</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/policebrutality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>policebrutality</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/teargas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>teargas</span></a></p>
MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History January 29, 1936: Rubber workers engaged in a sit-down strike in Akron, Ohio. Their action helped establish the United Rubber Workers as a national union. Working conditions and pay were terrible and workers and virtually no benefits. They engaged in numerous sit-down strikes in the 1930s. Theirs preceded the more famous Flint sit-down strike of 1936-1937. The first American sit-down strike was probably in 1909, when 3,000 members of the IWW engaged in a sit-down strike against General Electric, in Schenectady, NY.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/akron" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>akron</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ohio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ohio</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SitDownStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SitDownStrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>strike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>union</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flint</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IWW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IWW</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/policebrutality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>policebrutality</span></a></p>
MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History January 11, 1937: Police tried to raid the Fisher Body plant during the Flint Sit-Down Strike against General Motors. Workers threw hinges, bottles and bolts at the cops, effectively holding them off. However, the cops injured 14 strikers with gunfire. They had been occupying the plant for nearly two weeks. And they would continue their sit-down strike until February 11. They won a 5% raise and the UAW signed up 100,000 members in the wake of the strike.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flint</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SitDownStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SitDownStrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>police</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/policebrutality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>policebrutality</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uaw</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/autoworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>autoworkers</span></a></p>
MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History December 30, 1936: Auto workers began their historic sit-down strike at the GM Fisher plant in Flint, Michigan. The protest effectively changed the United Automobile Workers (UAW) from a collection of small local unions into a major national labor union. It also led to the unionization of the domestic automobile industry. By occupying the plant, they prevented management from bringing in scabs and keeping the plant running and making money. Furthermore, by occupying the plant, they weren’t forced to picked outside in the snow. On January 11, police armed with guns and tear gas tried to storm the plant. Strikers repeatedly repelled them by throwing hinges, bottles and bolts at them. Fourteen strikers were injured by police gunfire during the strike. In February, GM got an injunction against the union by Judge Edward Black, who owned over three thousand shares of GM. The strikers ignored the injunction. And when the UAW found out about the conflict of interests, they got the judge disbarred. The strike ended after 44 days with GM recognizing the union and giving its workers a 5% raise. Filmmaker Michael Moore’s uncle participated in the strike. The first documented sit-down strike in the U.S. occurred when the IWW engaged in a sit-down strike against General Electric, in Schenectady, NY, in 1909.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uaw</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sitdownstrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sitdownstrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>strike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>union</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/gm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gm</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/generalmotors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>generalmotors</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flint</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/michigan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>michigan</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IWW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IWW</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/newyork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>newyork</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/generalelectric" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>generalelectric</span></a></p>
