    Women and Labor Issues j305.42 / KEN Failure is Impossible! The History of American Women’s Rights by Martha E. Kendall. 2001. 96p. (MJS) From School Library Journal “A well-organized, well-documented resource. Kendall frames her discussion of women's suffrage with an account of the struggles of women throughout the centuries beginning with early colonists such as Anne Hutchinson. In addition to the battles and achievements of the women's movement, the author addresses property and child-custody rights and the fight for fair wages. She includes information on what life was like for mill girls, women in slavery, and on women in the media. Many black-and-white photos and other illustrations add dimension to the text. Four pages of brief biographies of remarkable women complete this thorough, multifaceted history.” j331.38 / GOU Good Girl Work: Factories, Sweatshops, and How Women Changed Their Role in the American Workforce by Catherine Gourley. 1999. 96p. (EMJ) From School Library Journal: “A carefully researched look at female labor in the early 19th and 20th centuries in this country when the workforce of the textile mills, shoe factories, and sweatshops was comprised of unskilled "girls" of all ages. Grossly overworked and underpaid, they slowly realized the truth of their exploitation, organized, and eventually changed the workplace. Gourley uses letters, diaries, and other primary sources to give personal glimpses into the feelings and thoughts of these heroines.” 331.4 / COL Rosie the Riveter: Women Working on the Home Front in World War II by Penny Colman. 1995. 120p.

  • Joe Hill Film Buff
    BO WIDERBERG’s LOST MASTERPIECE JOE HILL VICTORIAN TRADES HALL 54 VICTORIA ST CARLTON (CNR OF LYGON ST) CENTENARY THURSDAY 19 NOVEMBER AT 5.15 PM JOE HILL 1915-2015 CENTENARY CELEBRATION The critically acclaimed 1971 film Joe Hill, by renowned Swedish director Bo Widerberg (Elvira Madigan), won the Cannes Jury Prize in 1971. Lost and unavailable for many decades, it has now been restored and digitally remastered by the National Library of Sweden. We are offering you a unique opportunity to see this long-lost masterpiece. Joe Hill was a Swedish-American immigrant and itinerant labourer who fought for the rights and unity of workers. He was executed by firing squad in Utah on 19 November 1915, after being convicted of murder on circumstantial evidence. A poet, songwriter and IWW activist, he was commemorated by Joan Baez in the song ’I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill JOE HILL Last Night’. Bo Widerberg’s film dramatises Joe Hill’s life and impoverished, unorganised immigrant labour in the US during the early 20th century. His story is still relevant to workers today. The Victorian Trades Hall Choir will perform ‘I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill Last Night’, and Phil CENTENARY Cleary will speak about Joe Hill and his significance to workers today.

  • Woody Guthrie's Songs for Children
    ISSN 2053-8804 Woody Guthrie Annual, 2 (2016): Maloy, Guthrie’s Songs for Children “Why Couldn’t the Wind Blow Backwards?” Woody Guthrie’s Songs for Children ! !Liam Maloy 1 ! Any fool can make something complicated. It takes a genius to make it simple. This essay examines the songs that Woody Guthrie recorded for children and investigates the widely perceived notion that they are simple and particularly childlike. Biographer Joe Klein describes them as “utterly artless … truly children’s songs … written as children might write them.”2 Journalist Steven Stolder finds the songs “as spontaneous and nonsensical as baby babble and almost as delightful,”3 while recording artist Elizabeth Mitchell describes them as “simple yet profound … easy to learn and easy to sing … and just so darned cute.”4 To Mitchell, Guthrie has an “uncanny ability to inhabit both the perspective of a loving, protective parent and the voice of a freewheeling child.”5 His songs, it seems, comprise “seemingly freely-associated words … natural and effortless melodies … fragments of sweetness and mystery” and are “completely unique in their ability to straddle the worlds and views of both caregiver and child.”6 However, rather than simplicity, musical and lyrical analysis of Guthrie’s records for children reveals a relative complexity when compared to the children’s songs of Pete Seeger, Elizabeth Mitchell, Raffi, and other folk artists. In contrast to songs for children that perpetuate Romantic ideas of innocence and simplicity, Guthrie seems to have captured on record some of the unstructured, unresolved, unselfconscious exuberance of real children. Notably, Guthrie’s songs were assisted in a substantial way by his three- year-old daughter Cathy Ann,7 who was not only an inspiration, but also a co-writer, lyricist, collaborator, and muse.
