Solidarity Padlet by John Schmitt https://padlet.com/john731/g5z22q98sfn7037k en-us 2021-04-13 20:58:31 UTC 2021-04-14 21:59:24 UTC hello@padlet.com John john731 https://padlet.com/john731/g5z22q98sfn7037k/wish/1414219291 I protested with my wife in Brooklyn after the killing of George Floyd.  We made signs and marched in the streets for many nights because we believe Black lives matter, and we must reform the justice system in our country that does not equally protect all of us.]]> 2021-04-13 22:53:30 UTC https://padlet.com/john731/g5z22q98sfn7037k/wish/1414219291 "Solidarity Forever" john731 https://padlet.com/john731/g5z22q98sfn7037k/wish/1414256917 When the union's inspiration
through the workers' blood shall run
There can be no power greater
anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker
than the feeble strength of one?
For the Union makes us strong

CHORUS:
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
Solidarity forever
For the Union makes us strong

They have taken untold millions
that they never toiled to earn
But without our brain and muscle
not a single wheel can turn
We can break all of their power,
gain our freedom when we learn
That the Union makes us strong

CHORUS

In our hands is placed a power 
greater than their hoarded gold 
Greater than the might of armies
magnified a thousandfold 
We can bring to birth a new world
from the ashes of the old 
For the Union makes us strong
