Labor Day
Happy Labor Day! Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers and is traditionally observed on the first Monday in September. It was created by the labor movement in the late 19th century and became a federal holiday in 1894.
I spent over 45 years in the work force. Some of that time was spent as a union member, working at various movie studios throughout Los Angeles. Today, I am reaping the benefits of full-time employment thanks to the labor movement's accomplishments over the years for equal rights, better working conditions and equal pay, especially for women. Thank you.
One of my favorite Woody Guthrie songs is "Union Maid," written in 1940. Here's my rendition with some updated lyrics added in 1973 by Nancy Katz.
Happy Labor Day!

Labor Day being federally recognized since 1894 is the kind of historical anchor that makes the holiday feel weightier. Most people treat it as the unofficial end of summer, but that origin story in the labor movement is worth actually sitting with.
