12 Jul 1925 Jahr - Pan-Union Congress

Beschreibung:

A special "pan-union" congress is called in Philadelphia on July 12th, where Jack Reed and the leaders of the IWW put forth a bold plan to form an umbrella organization to coordinate union activities and policy to the end of bringing the revolution to America, tentatively named "The Combined Syndicates of America". The plan is met with general approval, but large parts of the AFL leadership object to its commitment to revolution, eventually departing the conference. Despite the setback, the "One Big Union" was now a reality.
