and the Cloth Hat and Cap Makers
Unión of America,
:43:07
also members of his family.
:43:11
In death, as in life, they stood at his side.
:43:14
They had fought battles with him,
bound the wounds with him,
:43:18
had earned bread together,
and had broken it together.
:43:22
When they spoke, they spoke in one voice,
:43:26
and they were heard.
:43:28
And they were black and white.
They were Irish and Polish.
:43:32
And they were Catholic, and they were Jews.
:43:35
And they were one.
:43:37
That's what a unión is.
:43:40
One.
:43:43
Ladies and gentlemen,
:43:45
the textile industry in which you are
spending your lives and your substance,
:43:50
and in which your children and their children
will spend their lives and their substance,
:43:55
is the only industry in the whole of the United
States of America that is not unionised.
:44:01
Therefore they are free to exploit you,
:44:03
to lie to you, to cheat you, and to take away
from you what is rightfully yours.
:44:08
Your health. A decent wage.
A fit place to work.
:44:14
I would urge you to stop them... by coming
over to room 31 at the Golden Cherry Motel
:44:20
to pick up a unión card and sign it.
:44:24
Yes, it comes from the Bible.
:44:27
"According to the tribes of your fathers
:44:31
ye shall inherit."
:44:34
But it comes from Reuben Warshawsky:
"Not unless you make it happen."
:44:43
Thank you.
:44:50
Thank you, Reverend. I appreciate it.
:44:54
Everybody should have come and heard you.
:44:57
- Next time.
- Uh-huh. If I have to drag 'em.
