Joe Hill Watch



"Don't Mourn, Organize"
.

Union Librarian began the Joe Hill Watch on April 20, 2006. The Joe Hill Watch honor workers killed or wounded on the job. In some cases as in Mexico, workers have been killed fighting for their rights. In other cases workers have died because of unsafe work conditions. By driving out unions management all over the world are responsible for unsafe working cnditions. Each man or woman who dies at work is a light that goes out.We begin the Joe Hill Watch at the time of organizing for the May 1, 2006 Immigration Protests. It is a shocking reminder of the suffering and hardships of our brothers and sisters in Mexico that the Mexican police have killed and wounded striking workers on the eve of the U.S. protests.
