Aberdeen City Arts Board (A.C.A.B.) in association with Aberdeen Anarchists & The Shared Planet Society Presents:
The Autumn Series. No.2
“The Industrial Workers of the World.”
Dek Keenan is an organiser and key member of the Industrial Workers of the
World (IWW). In this the second of Aberdeen City Arts Board’s Autumn
series of talks, Dek will give a broad outline of the organisation’s work
and practice both here and abroad as well as provide some historical
context.
The Wobblies as they are often affectionately known, is an international
radical workers union. It’s aim is to unite all workers irrespective of
trade with the common purpose of overthrowing the employing class. It is a
rank-and-file organisation, with a long and inspiring history. The IWW
boasted 100,000 members in the 1920s.
