SUMMARY:Folk Music of the Industrial Workers of the World
DESCRIPTION:
 This program will feature folks songs created 
 by the songwriters and activists of the Industrial 
 Workers of the World in the first few decades 
 of the 20th century. The IWW was an extremely 
 colorful union which used music extensively 
 in their organizing and strike actions. 
 These songs by Ralph Chaplin and the most famous 
 US labor martyr, Joe Hill, are still popular 
 today. Charlie King, George Mann, and the 
 folk duo Magpie (Greg Artzner and Terry Leonino) 
 have used the recent 100th anniversary 
 of the Utah execution of Joe Hill to tour the 
 US presenting his music and the songs of the 
 other IWW songwriters.\n
