A member of the General Strike Committee and columnist
for the Seattle Union Record, Anna
Louise Strong gained notoriety when on the
eve of the 1919 strike she penned a front-page editorial
(right) that seemed to call for revolution.
“We are
undertaking the most tremendous move
ever made by LABOR in this
country, a move which will
lead – NO ONE KNOWS WHERE!”
- Anna Louise
Strong, February 4, 1919
