DESCRIPTION:Woody Guthrie’s Birthday & Homestead Strike \nWoody Guthrie: July 14, 
 1912-October 3, 1967\nJoin labor musician Jimmy Kelly in commemorating the 
 life and songs of Woody Guthrie and his birthday. Guthrie, a people and 
 worker’s musician, traveled coast-to-coast singing about striking workers 
 and people in struggle.\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_Guthrie\n\nThe 
 River Ran Red (58 min.) 2012 \n By Steffi Domike & Nicole Fauteux\nThe 
 violence that erupted at Carnegie Steel’s giant Homestead mill near 
 Pittsburgh on July 6, 1892, caused a congressional investigation and trials 
 for treason, motivated a nearly successful assassination attempt on Frick, 
 contributed to the defeat of President Benjamin Harrison for a second term, 
 and changed the course of the American labor movement.\n\n This film is  a 
 ripping account of the summer of 1892, in which a bitter conflict erupted 
 at the Carnegie Works in Homestead, Pennsylvania. The nation’s largest 
 steel maker took on its most militant labor union, with devastating 
 consequences for American workers. Andrew Carnegie and Henry Clay Frick 
 head a fascinating cast of characters, which includes 300 armed Pinkerton 
 guards and the would-be anarchist assassin, Alexander Berkman. This 
 American tragedy still resonates 125 years later, especially in communities 
 hard hit by the decline of heavy industry and labor’s diminishing 
 clout.\nSee also:
