1 gen 1903 anni - Mother Jones

Descrizione:

Mary Harris “Mother” Jones
was a native of Ireland who
immigrated to North America
as a child. She became
involved in the American labor
movement after receiving
assistance from the Knights
of Labor. According to a
reporter who followed “the
mother of the laboring class”
on her children’s march in
1903, “She fights their
battles with a Mother’s Love.”
Jones continued fighting until
her death at age 100.
Jones was definitely not the
kind of woman admired by
industrialists. “God almighty
made women,” she declared,
“and the Rockefeller gang of
thieves made ladies.”
