Book Description
Excerpt from When Labor Goes to School: A Story of the Worker's Educational Movement A class that. Refused to be dismissed after a two hour session but adjourned to the sidewalk until they were accused of interfering with traffic and thereupon followed their teacher to the railway station and even took the train with him to his home! No, this is not a pretty piece of fiction; it actually happened. But it happened not in the public school or in some big uni versity, but in a school conducted by a group of work ing men and working women. These men and women were going to school not because they had to, nor even because they expected to get a better job by so doing, but simply because they wanted the power and the fullness of life and the broadened vision that knowledge alone can give. They were not studying something someone else thought they ought to learn but were seeking to learn those things which they had found through experience that they needed. This is only one instance of the many working men and women in this country and in other countries who are squeezing into seats designed for school children, or gathering in some vacant room of a public library or at the headquarters of some local trade union to study English or economics or international law or political economy or public speaking or anything else that they want to learn and can find a teacher to teach.
