Today in Labour History

 From Edd Mustill:
 
Dear Keith,

I am working at LabourStart.org, a news service and campaigning website for trade unionists. We are currently starting to build a 'Today in Labour History' calendar that people and union branches can add as a widget to their website. We want as many people as possible to be involved in the project in order to give it as much detail and flavour as we can. As an internationalist website, we are looking at adding dates of strikes, protests, congresses, and so on from all over the world. It would also be good to have some lesser known local disputes covered as well.

Would you or anyone involved in the LSHG be interested in sending in any dates and descriptions of things they think should definitely be included in such a calendar? All we need is a date, very brief desciption of the event, and if possible a link to more information.

People can send any ideas over to me at intern@labourstart.org.

I'd be grateful if you could forward this out to your email lists, and/or put out the call on your blog.

Thanks,

Edd Mustill
