Today in #LaborHistory 2/27/1875: #EugeneDebs became a charter member & secty of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. He later led the bitter Pullman #strike. After that, he cofounded the #IWW and ran for #POTUS as a socialist while in #prison.

#FreeSpeech in the US has often been ignored, as when #SCOTUS upheld convictions of #CharlesSchenck & #EugeneDebs for opposing WWI. To defend & expand our #CivilLiberties, the #ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) was founded on #ThisDayInHistory in 1920 out of an earlier group.

Join us for a screening of The Revolutionist: Eugene V. Debs and a live discussion with Allison Duerk, Director of the Eugene Debs Museum. Space is limited - RSVP here: www.bit.ly/Debs_Pullman #1u #LaborHistory #PullmanStrike #EugeneDebs

Would have disqualified #EugeneDebs

Batman scowling, saying „POLICE BRUTALITY AND MURDER PUTS US ON OPPOSITE SIDES. OFFICERS.“

While there is a lower class, I am of it. While there is a criminal element, I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison I am not free.

December 25, 1921

President Harding announced the release of Socialist Party leader Eugene V. Debs from prison, unconditionally commuting his 10-year sentence to time served. Debs’s full rights as a citizen, however, were not restored.

Cartoon showing US Socialist Presidential candidate, who ran from in prison in the 1920 election. This cartoon depicts Eugene V. Debs and his quest for the presidency. Debs campaigned while in jail for denouncing the U.S. entry into war. Text reads: Debs is saying: "Anyhow, there are worse places than a front porch!" (a reference to Warren G. Harding's "front porch campaign") A sign reads: Yours for The Presidency Eugene V. Debs ("Yours for the Presidency" echoes "Yours for the Revolution," a popular sign-off within Socialist circles of the period. See Jack London, or the Appeal to Reason, the most important Socialist newspaper of the era.) In his pocket, Debs has a paper marked "Speech" Signed "Berryman" (by Clifford K. Berryman)

Today in #LaborHistory 12/23/1921: Pres Warren Harding issued "Christmas amnesty" for #EugeneDebs & 23 other political prisoners. Debs was cofounder of #IWW & 5-time candidate for president.

Eugene Debs, FDR fighting back

Zorhan Mamdani talked socialism and then staffed a socialist circus.

NYC power brokers win big with Zorhan Mamdani. Time will tell, but if past is prologue, they’ll loot City Hall.

The other NRA—the wage-blocking, safety-dodging National Restaurant Association—just hit the jackpot with Zorhan Mamdani. Their NYC arm, the Hospitality Alliance, has the keys to City Hall… again

New era for NYC? REBNY and lobbyists walked in like, “We’ll take it from here.” Same bosses, same hustle. #EugeneDebs #FDR #ZorhanMamdani

"I have no country to fight for; my country is the earth; I am a citizen of the world."

#EugeneDebs, Writings of Eugene V. Debs

"In every age it has been the tyrant, the oppressor and the exploiter who has wrapped himself in the cloak of patriotism, or religion, or both to deceive and overawe the People."

-Eugene Victor Debs

#EugeneDebs

I oppose a social order where it is possible for one man who does nothing that is useful to amass a fortune while millions of men and women who work all the days of their lives secure barely enough for a wretched existence.

NYC electing Mamdani, a democratic socialist, is a reminder that 1) Socialism has a long history in the US and 2) Americans actually LOVE socialism. #ushistory #Mamdani #socialism #eugenedebs #History... TikTok video by Edward T. O’Donnell

Crazy that NYC (s) new mayor #ZohranMamdani quoted #EugeneDebs in his victory speech. However, if #BarackObama gets in his ear, everything good and holy may fall apart @workers.bsky.social @feralcommie.bsky.social

I can see the dawn of the better day for humanity. The people are awakening. In due time they will and must come to their own.

I heard about Debs when I was a kid in the 50s. But no details. A man ahead of his time. A man fighting for what ppl are STILL fighting for. Good that his name is popping up here and there. Thanks for sharing! #EugeneDebs
