I visited the Virden Mine War Monument yesterday.
In Virden, IL. Here's the story of the Virden Mine War: http://www.csj.net/~mkwoods/Virden.htm

Seeing the monument was a great reminder of what labor has been through in this country to bring workers what they have today...and why we must be vigilant.

Have a great Labor Day, everyone! Solidarity Forever!
