Imagine you are an industrial worker sometime between 1880 and 1905 in america. Describe your life. Be sure to discuss both your work and your home life. What do you do for a living? What are your working conditions? Where (and how) do you live? What are your hopes and aspirations for yourself and your family? What reasons would you have for joining a union? Which union or labor organization of this period most appeals to you, and why? Would you join that union?
