IWW is synonymous with the history of the anarchist movement in the United States
(Industrial Workers of the World) publication of the Industrial Worker newspaper editor
from Diane we share with you our interview with Krauthamer'l. ---- Square : the freedom
struggle of the oppressed IWW, black and LGBT individuals have significant historical
features such as the first to be organized by the trade unions. The sound of the IWW
Industrial Worker (Industrial Worker) when the broadcast began life? ---- IWW: IWW had
numerous publications, however, the official organ of the IWW, Industrial Workers; first
in 1909 in Spokane, Washington, and has continued to develop so far been published.
Published weekly in the first year of the newspaper , now published number of 10 years.
---- IWW's a known fact that affects the workers' struggles in North America. What is the
role of the industry in the development of the struggle Worker newspaper?
Newspapers both potential Wobbly * 's tool for an organization, I can tell you first hand
as well as conducting studies across a variety of industries, it used as a source of
information sharing. Editorial six and a half years did I, what I have heard from many
Wobbly, after reading our newspaper or a book store they find a buffet of their
participation in ıww'y. Another thing I hear very often, most of the friends of the
workers, one of our members is that members of the union after giving him the newspaper.
More recently, a member of the IWW in Boston, at Harvard University that the newspaper
three security officers, after three people said that they were union members. So the
newspaper, before such workers were not interested in the news or the struggles, we can
see that directly relate and Notify.
Industrial Worker at the same time an anarchist publications. What is its place among the
other anarchist publications Industrial Worker? What would once have reached the most
people in the newspaper?
Workers in basic industries, including anarchism does not support any ideology. Newspapers
often as all the organs of the union, we are using to defend our views. Unfortunately we
have no record that we can determine the number of readers. But most of the time, the
reader is estimated that the IWW's heyday in the 1910s, the unions are the times that of
the thousands and thousands of members.
The publication of the article, who are preparing a number of industries each worker? Is
there any other roles in workers' struggles? How does it work?
I was the only editor from 2009 until 2014. Now it together with Nick is the world's
workers in many parts of the friends and comrades, news, photos, reviews, offers idea
whether we collect letters and other shipments. Later writings, in terms of governing
style and spelling are sending volunteers to fill all the editorial team and a part of the
"budget" (or draft layout) are forming. "International News", "Columns", "Criticism",
"Articles", "the IWW News", and so on. There departments. After the correction is
completed articles, I prepare using Indesign newspaper. I'm working with the latest fixes
and redaksiyoncu Nick needed. All of the production process usually takes 2-3 weeks. Our
writers and our volunteers do not receive wages. Nick and I are getting a symbolic fee for
the work we do. And yes, anyone who has engaged in a newspaper often struggle in their
work places, are operating in their IWW branches or groups. I think it also nourishes our
work in our newspapers these activities. We can not write about the struggle to join the
struggle!
Newspaper distributed? Readers who?
Many IWW members of readers, but newspapers in many bookstores, academic institutions, we
distribute to libraries and organizations. We have readers from many sectors of society
and the technique comes with membership in the IWW newspaper subscription. Which means;
Staughton Lynd, Tom Morello and even among some celebrities such as Noam Chomsky * Wobbly
also our readers! Anyone can subscribe. I invite you to subscribe to our comrades in
Turkey and Kurdistan.
States, a fact that trying to suppress the voices of anarchists throughout history. What
he was faced with challenges such as publishing on Industry Worker?
Between August 21, 1913 and April 1, 1916 there is no record that Industry Worker's
published. According to the Labor Publications Project website at the University of
Washington, almost three-year interruption due to the publication of newspapers; This
period may be applied to Wobbly torture. However, no precise information. This site is
also the editor in the early years of the publication of the newspaper "the arrests and
the newspaper could not work" is the frequently mentioned reason has changed. Again,
although not final, is likely to be affected in this way from the Industrial Workers of
the government repression in the early 20th century.
Is there anything you want to add?
One of the most powerful weapons in our movement is international solidarity. Information,
resources, sharing our tools and our constant struggle to be aware of each other, I think
it would be useful. Therefore, in Turkey, the comrades who read it in or somewhere else
Kurdistan to write us a line, writing ideas and sending photos and I urge you to stay in
communication continue to work together in the fight we gave against capitalism, let's.
