Today in Labor History September 28, 1920: Throughout September there were widespread armed occupations of Italian factories by workers. The actions originated in the auto factories, steel mills and machine tool plants, but spread to many other industries, including cotton mills, hosiery firms, lignite mines, tire factories, breweries & distilleries, steamships and warehouses in the port towns. At its height, 600,000 workers participated in the anti-capitalist protests for worker control and empowerment.

@TeaMug @sidereal As coop members, we want to support #PCCworkers and will do all we can to support their side of the bargaining table. We look to staff as leadership in this struggle. Management has made some imprudent choices recently and meager (ten and twenty cents) pay raise offers. If truly a community grocer, PCC needs more #workercontrol. #Seattle #PugetSound #foodsafety #contract #fairness
