Wobblies of the World is a powerful and inspiring story of how ordinary people can make a difference in the world.
The Industrial Workers of the World
The Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) was founded in 1905 in Chicago, Illinois. The IWW was a radical labor union that sought to organize all workers, regardless of skill, race, gender, or nationality. The IWW's goal was to create a new society based on workers' control of the means of production.
The IWW quickly spread across the United States and around the world. By 1912, the IWW had over 100,000 members in over 50 countries. The IWW was a major force in the labor movement in the early 20th century. The IWW led numerous strikes and other actions to fight for workers' rights.
The Wobblies and the Global Rebellion
The Wobblies were not only active in the United States. They were also active in Canada, Mexico, Europe, Asia, and Africa. The Wobblies helped to organize workers in a variety of industries, including mining, logging, agriculture, and manufacturing. The Wobblies also played a major role in the anti-war movement during World War I.
The Wobblies' global rebellion was a major challenge to the status quo. The Wobblies fought for workers' rights, but they also fought for a new society based on workers' control. The Wobblies were a force for change in the world, and their legacy continues to inspire activists today.
Wobblies of the World Today
