Today In Labor History April 3, 1917: After the U.S. declared war, sailors, escorted by police, destroyed the IWW building in Kansas City. The action inspired similar attacks in Detroit, Duluth and other towns that had a large IWW presence.

"The third round of “No Kings” demonstrations on March 28 drew millions of people into the streets across the United States in what was the largest single-day protest in American history. Organizers estimated that roughly 8 million people participated in more than 3,300 events across the 50 states in every major city, along with hundreds of small towns."

"The scale of the March 28 protests reflected the depth of popular anger at the advance of dictatorship at home and the escalation of imperialist war abroad. A collision is unfolding between a capitalist oligarchy that is breaking with democratic forms of rule and the broad mass of the population."

"The scale of the opposition terrifies the ruling class, and the response of the corporate media was to downplay it and move on as quickly as possible. [...] The Sunday cable news programs the day after barely mentioned the largest protest in American history."

"The question that must be confronted is: Given the scale of opposition, how is Trump still in power? [...] The answer lies in the political chasm between the anger of millions and the supposed opposition, including the Democratic Party-aligned groups (led by Indivisible) that called the protests. This was expressed most sharply in the deliberate downplaying of the war."

"He and other peace activists came to view the contents of draft boards’ filing cabinets as no different from bombs or bullets: They were just tools that helped the government kill."
