Deejay A Sharp: 8 Hours for work, 8 Hours for rest, 8 hours for what we will



As the national movement for a general strike in support of the 8-hour
work day spread across the U.S. in 1886, business groups and major
newspapers lashed out at the effort. On April 25 The New York Times
declared the struggle for an 8-hour day to be “un-American” and called
public demonstrations for shorter hours “labor disturbances brought
about by foreigners.” Other publications declare that an eight-hour
workday day would bring about “loafing and gambling, rioting,
debauchery and drunkenness.

Hurray, Hurray for the merry, merry month of May !
