On this day in 1886, Lucy Parsons, a Black anarchist born into slavery, marched with her children at the front of one of the largest labor marches in US history, as workers across the country demanded the eight hour day. Two days later, striking workers were shot.

So as the opening bell tolls and your 401k goes up in smoke, remember who's to blame. The rich have taken your money and your future and put it in a vibe casino that they built AND STILL SOMEHOW LOST.

Of course it’s illegal. That doesn’t really matter anymore unless the courts do something about it, and even then, it only matters if their orders are followed. We’re not in a new era—we’re back in an old one.

These plutocrat motherfuckers need to remember that labor laws were the compromise.
