Description A few days ago it was 99 years ago Joe Hill was murdered by Utah state authorities. He was sentenced to death for a murder that he did not commit but he was killed because he wrote, sang, and organised. To remember him, organise in his name wherever you can!


"My Will is easy to decide,
For there is nothing To divide
My kin don't need to fuss and moan
Moss does not cling to a rolling stone

My body?—Oh!—If I could choose
I would want to ashes it reduce,
And let The merry breezes blow
My dust to where some flowers grow

Perhaps some fading flower then
Would come to life and bloom again
This is my Last and Final Will:
Good Luck to All of you,
                                       
                                   Joe Hill"

Nice poster, when we were covering criminal law in college I went and dug up the history of his case out of curiosity, I still think it was seriously dodgy - any evidence barely skirted being circumstantial and the fact that he was arrested in a company owned town meant that bias might have been against him.

And yet today we still have idiots who think unions are obsolete.
