It's once in a lifetime that the Smithsonian Institute creates a traveling exhibit on work and working people.  Throw in that they are involving organized labor and you gotta be there!  Let's come out to support this exhibit and our own Sam White.

 For those of you in mid-Missouri, I will be giving a lecture titled A Brief History of Work in the United States at the Churchill Museum Tuesday, February 28th at 5:00 PM to support the The Way We Worked exhibit.  As you may know, the Churchill Museum at Westminster College in Fulton is hosting the Smithsonian’s The Way We Worked travelling exhibit until March 10th.  Several labor organizations including the pipefitters, sheet metal workers, electricians, bricklayers, operators, and steelworkers have contributed to the exhibit.  The lecture on the 28th will be about an hour and, I hope, entertaining.  Here is a link to the Churchill Museum.
