June 27: IWW meeting / Critical Mass / Emma Goldman's Birthday!
Primary tabs
Do you know what June 27 represents?
June 27--tomorrow--represents the birthday of anarchist, feminist, labor organizer, free speech advocate, and Rochester, NY resident Emma Goldman!!!
Also, tomorrow is the birthday of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW). The IWW contends that all workers should be united within a single union as a class and that the wage system should be abolished. They may be best known for the Wobbly Shop model of workplace democracy, in which workers elect recallable delegates, and other norms of grassroots democracy (self-management) are implemented.
A new chapter has formed here in Rochester and a meeting will be held on Monday, June 30th, 6PM at the Anti-war storefront located at 658 Monroe Ave.
Tomorrow also happens to be Rochester Critical Mass! We meet at the Liberty Pole at 6pm in downtown and ride bicycles for a few hours in a group through the streets of the city! Everyone is welcome! If anyone has literature celebrating Emma Goldman or the wobblies (IWW), please bring it for tomorrow's ride!!
