Missing Labor History

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
We missed an important date in labor history on June 21, the 4-year anniversary of BIGLabor.com’s “Today In Labor History,” which has become one of UNION CITY’s most popular features. “Every week's offering is likely to change year to year as I continue to find appropriate items and/or finetune existing items, and as new ‘history’ happens every day” reports David Prosten of Union Communication Services, which publishes BigLabor. “We also wanted to let you know that we're getting a good response from folks regarding the addition of (Union City Assistant Editor) Andy Richards' well-researched graphics,” Prosten adds. Labor history suggestions or corrections are always welcome, says Prosten; send them to him at david@unionist.com
