The Memorial Day Massacre

Greg Mitchell and Lyn Goldfarb discuss their new film Memorial Day Massacre: Workers Die, Film Buried, which explores a largely forgotten episode in labor--and media—history.
On this week’s Labor History in Two:  The year was 1937. That was the day that workers at the Jones and Laughlin plant in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania voted in the first ever union election in the United States’ steel industry under the National Labor Relations Board.
