Today In Labor History March 27, 1904: The authorities kicked Mother Jones out of Colorado for “stirring-up” striking coal miners. Earlier in March, the authorities deported 60 striking miners from Colorado. In June, they arrested 22 in Telluride. For nearly 2 years, strikers, led by the Western Federation of Miners, were violently attacked by Pinkerton and Baldwin-Felts detectives. 33 strikers were killed. At least two scholars have said “There is no episode in American labor history in which violence was as systematically used by employers as in the Colorado labor war of 1903 and 1904.”

Nurses honor Alex Pretti, call for abolition of ICE and general strike in Chicago

Nurses honor Alex Pretti, call for abolition of ICE and general strike in Chicago

Hundreds gathered outside the Jesse Brown Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center on the Near West Side to honor Alex Pretti, who was shot to death Saturday by two Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis, as well as all others killed by federal immigration enforcement. Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen born in northwest suburban Streamwood, worked as an ICU nurse for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in Minnesota. The group, many of them nurses still wearing badges after walking from their nearby workplaces, performed a Nightingale Tribute — a traditional send off for nurses — while calling for ICE to be abolished and pushing for a general strike modeled after one in Minneapolis.
