"We Want Bread and Roses Too" The Bread and Roses Strike of 1912 

This is inspiring! I attended grammar school and high school in Lawrence. Only one person from my childhood--an inspiring teacher, Sr. Mary Long, S.N.D.--spoke of the strike. To my mind, knowledge in Lawrence of this major achievement, by workers, and by women, of so many nationalities, was buried, and nearly forgotten.

I love this video. Every high school student needs to see this. In the 21st century we need to get beyond male vs. female. It was ALWAYS about the 1% vs. the 99%.

This film should be shown in all schools!

Just stumbled across your video after visiting the Lawrence Heritage Visitor's Center, which had some information on the Bread and Roses strike. Impressive work by the young filmmakers unearthing this hidden history of the collective struggle. Let's hope our generation can follow in the footsteps of these brave women and men.

Brilliant video. Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains.

Watched it again today. Truly this should be shown in all schools. I was surprised that President Taft, a Republican president, supported the strikers!

The narrators rushed and flat presentation didn’t do this video justice.

I hope Bezos and lots of other big CEOs will listen to this. I'll put it on my Facebook feed for starters. Here's looking at you too, Zuckerberg.

I'm reading the book

my eyes are empty, i am a man brought up in a femocracy so it's in my breeding to support women
