A History of the Revolutionary Working Class

From the webpage:

Since capitalism arose in the world, workers have been banding together; at first locally in small groups, but increasingly workers realized that the greater the strength of workers’ organisation, the better able workers are to challenge capitalism. This section provides in-depth history of these efforts of organising workers regardless of race, ethnicity, gender – or border, the effort to organise and create collaboration and co-operation between workers the world over in order to win the world for those who make it run.

A great source for balancing the standard narratives about socialism/communism in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Their lack of success reminds me of (paraphrase):

…if you’re unwilling to talk about violence, you aren’t ready to talk about revolution….

I don’t remember if the source was a newspaper (LA Free Press for example), a book, etc. Does that ring a bell for you?

I first saw this link in a Facebook post by Steve Pepper.
