4. Explore the cartoons and photos your LABOR MOVEMENT READER and come up with at least two observations and two questions (share with table group)



HW for Thursday: Flipped classroom - watch Labor's Turning Point from 0:36 to 19:42 and The Wobblies from 5:36 to 38:00 and take notes (link should start you at 5:36). Here are some guiding questions for your notes: What were some of the social and economic changes that led to the rise of labor unions in the 19th century? What were the strikers fighting for? What role did music play? What was the mission of the I.W.W.? What connections can you make to the Suffrage Movement?
