Re-post: Union Man

Union Man


Happy Labor Day and a salute to labor unions. President Obama gave a speech today commemorating the occasion without using the word "unions." It has become a dirty word in our politics, and unions are becoming less and less powerful, such that even democrats are slinking away from them.

This picture is from the Occupy Wall Street series I did a couple of years ago, when they still occupied Zuccotti Park.

  1. Still they were important to get some laws on working conditions to the benefit of all. You must have a nice photo archive to pick from.

  2. Glad to see someone drawing the connection between Labor Day and Labor Unions - The big disconnect that has occurred is not encouraging. Nice sharp image that conveys a lot of information via the various forms of signage.
