MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History April 20, 1948: United Auto Workers President Walter Reuther was shot and seriously wounded by would-be assassins while he was eating dinner. It permanently impaired his right arm. He survived and ultimately died in a plane crash in 1970 under suspicious circumstances. Reuther also survived an attempted kidnapping in April, 1938, while his brother Victor was shot and nearly killed by police in 1949. The UAW headquarters was also bombed in 1949. Both Walter and Victor were again nearly killed in a small private plane near Dulles Airport. Despite this history of attempts on his life, virtually no media addressed the possibility that his actual death may have been an assassination. </p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/walterreuther" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>walterreuther</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uaw</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>union</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/autoworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autoworkers</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/assassination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>assassination</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>police</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bombing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bombing</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 noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flint</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SitDownStrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SitDownStrike</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>police</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/policebrutality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>policebrutality</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uaw</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/autoworkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>autoworkers</span></a></p>

Simple ventroliquizing of <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Trump</span></a>&#39;s utterly absurd position that he is a protector of <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/workers" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>workers</span></a>&#39; rights. We have a record of 4 years in the White House and a record of non-payment for labor for decades before that. How about dig into (and you don&#39;t need to dig deep) his record and compare it with the words spoken? They are false/fraudulent.</p>
