The Battle Of The Overpass
In May 1937 the world was awakened to the real struggles that unions were facing in organizing when pictures were shown through out the country of the beating that UAW organizers took by the hands of the Ford Motor Company's "Service Men". These photographs became a part of one of the most famous events in the history of the American labor movement. The following links tell the story of that day in May.
