Labor's Martyrs Quotes

“Hastily he wrote up a leaflet denouncing the police attack, calling for revenge "if you are the sons of your grandsires who have shed their blood to free you." It ended with a dramatic call to arms, which Spies upon re-reading ordered stricken out. The typesetter left it in and at the Haymarket trial which followed it provided the prosecution with some of its most valuable ammunition in firing the hatred of the jury.”
― Vito Marcantonio, Labor's Martyrs: Haymarket 1887, Sacco and Vanzetti 1927
