Yeah, the whole of the Haymarket affair is fascinating. It was a quick blurb in my history classes in school, but the rest of the world celebrates labor day on its anniversary.

Lucy Parsons is definitely the most interesting person involved.

She was a voice for returning fire on the rich and given her life story even liberals find it hard to blame her for it
