The Labor Movement

Themes: Labor, Organizing

This “Labor Movement” poster features the demands and victories of the Labor Movement over the decades and the words of Frederick Douglass:

Power concedes nothing without a demand — it never has, and it never will.

Artist Ricardo Levins Morales explains:

The social gains of humanity did not invent themselves and will not defend themselves. Only organized people can do that.

The image can be ordered directly from the artist at RLM Art Studio as a poster (11″ x 17″) and notecard.
