The secret of power is organization! Back in 1905, the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) organized "unskilled" workers in factories, forests, mines, and docks into a gargantuan union that transformed American history. Deborah Shaffer and Stewart Bird share the story of IWW workers (aka "Wobblies") and their demands for improved wages, healthcare, and working conditions in this documentary, which compiles archival footage, interviews, art, and rebellious Wobbly songs.
The screening is free, but you can get a ticket to secure your spot and help raise funds for Outside the Frame.
