Summary
“We must inscribe on our banner the revolutionary watchword, ‘Abolition of the wage system’”
The Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), members of which are commonly termed «Wobblies,» is an international labor union that was founded in 1905. The philosophy and tactics of the IWW are described as «revolutionary industrial unionism,» with ties to both socialist and anarchist labor movements. The IWW promotes the concept of «One Big Union,» and contends that all workers should be united as a social class to supplant capitalism and wage labor with industrial democracy.
Vincent St. John (1876 – 1929) was an American labor leader and prominent Wobbly, among the most influential radical labor leaders of the 20th century. — Summary by Wikipedia
