Union Tapestries
Description: Be proud to be a "union thug". Without labor unions, there would be no weekends, minimum wage, paid vacation, 8 hour workdays, social security, pensions, child labor laws, sick leave, overtime pay, work breaks, maternity leave, and more of the labor rights people now take for granted.
Description: Workers Get Wise! Organize! This design was originally made by Rebel Arts and printed by Union Poster Service in 1939. I have redrawn, recolored, restored, and digitized it in order to preserve this piece of labor history. Check out more of my art and products at https://spacedoglaika.com/

"$100.00 worth" "Then instead of you paying him -- He is paying you $75.00 a day to tell him to work faster!" "Huh? But the machines belong to me-" "How did you get the machines?"

Description: They gave us weekends, ended child labor, are responsible for widespread employer-based health coverage, created the middle class, and helped win The Family And Medical Leave Act. Union workers average 10-30% higher pay than non-union workers. The decline of the labor movement and union membership is a large factor in the current income inequality in the U.S. today.
