Labor Labor Leader Labor Union Levy Lewis Llewellyn Meeting Miner Movement Parody Podium Speech United Mine Workers Will I Am
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of American labor leader John Llewellyn Lewis addressing a meeting of the United Mine Workers. Taken in the early 20th century, this image showcases Lewis standing tall at a podium, his powerful presence commanding attention from all those present. The cartoon-like style, skillfully created by artist William Auerbach-Levy, adds a touch of humor and parody to the scene. With exaggerated features and expressive gestures, Levy's artwork brings an element of playfulness to this otherwise serious moment in history. Lewis was known for his influential role in the labor movement during his time as president of both the United Mine Workers and Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO). His impassioned speeches were instrumental in advocating for workers' rights and improving working conditions across America. In this particular gathering, Lewis addresses a group of miners who had placed their trust in him to fight for fair wages and better treatment. The unity among these men is palpable as they listen intently to their esteemed leader's words. This print serves as a reminder of Lewis' significant contributions to American labor unions and highlights the importance of collective action in achieving social progress. It stands as a testament to the resilience and determination displayed by workers throughout history who have fought tirelessly for their rights.
