Public speaking. Terrifying? Nervewracking? Impossible to do well? Not so! Public speaking can be an empowering and fun opportunity to express yourself, and it is an especially important skill for anarchists.
Historian Peter Cole describes one of America's most incredible, yet little known, unions. In 1913, thousands of Philadelphia dockworkers formed Local 8 of the Industrial Workers of the World. Local 8 was the most progressive, multiethnic union in the nation until its demise. Joining Cole will be New York's Wobblies, who will screen a short film and discuss their present day organizing.
