We've been publishing stories all year related to our 70th anniversary, but today marks the actual date that the Texas Observer published its first issue in 1954, with the top story dedicated to a retail workers' #strike in Port Arthur: https://archives.texasobserver.org/issue/1954/12/13#page=1

Comboi suspendido pola greve (e avisado com tempo por Renfe). Toca ir de carro (que ruína!).
Os supermercados Gadis pedem aos sindicatos CIG, CCOO, UGT e USO 1,25 milhões de euros em conceito de indemnização polos "prejuízos" da greve.
"Vivamos como escravas, explotadas em confiança"
Os quatro sindicatos convocam uma nova greve para os dias 24, 25 e 26 de julho ✊
In 1992, Cicih Sukaesih led fellow Indonesian factory workers in a strike, part of a movement that led Nike to create its first code of conduct.
She's proud of the example she set. But she described her work as incomplete, as problems remain, including chronically low wages.

Hoje há greve em Renfe (intervenção e condução) convocada polo sindicato minoritário Sindicato Ferroviario. Há fixados 73% de serviços mínimos e eu teño um bilhete sim e outro não 🎰
Protestam polo "desmantelamiento del ferrocarril público con la venta de Renfe Mercancías y el cierre de distintas bases de mantenimiento".
Aproveitando a folga de Renfe para reclamar a devolução por atrasos em duas viagens 🤷👌

Today in Labor History February 1, 1864: The Collar Laundry Union formed in Troy, New York. The Collar Union was the first all-female labor union in the U.S. Women typically worked 12-14 hours per day under dangerous conditions. Led by Kate Mullany, the union won a wage increase from $2 per week to $14 per week.

Today in Labor History May 27, 1916: 3000 members of the Marine Transport Workers of the IWW marched along the Philadelphia waterfront, leading to strikes at three non-union docks. Black and white Wobblies fought together against scabs and police. One of the main organizers of the Philadelphia waterfront was African American Wobbly, Ben Fletcher, who co-founded the interracial Local 8 in 1913. By 1916, thanks in large part to Fletcher’s organizing skill, all but two of Philadelphia’s docks were controlled by the IWW. And the union maintained control of the Philly waterfront for about a decade.
