Description

"The working class and the employing class have no God in common" - Walker P. Smith

Have you heard those wild old labor songs? Dump the bosses of your back, The Lumberjack's prayer, and Casey Jones? Ever wonder why they sound like hymns? In this episode, Matt and Dean read Donald Winter's book The Soul of the Wobblies and get to the bottom of the IWW and the way they appropriated religious themes.
