Jakub ErebosPrávě dočteno.Konečně jsem si doplnil vzdělání o tuhle skvělou knihu. Ano, já vím, hanba mi, ale každý má nějaké resty. Tohle byl jeden z mých. Nadčasové dílo Jacka Londona je vlastně takový pamflet kritizující tehdejší poměry ve věznicích v USA, jenže nejen to. Je to i oslava vnitřní svobody a nesmrtelnosti duše. Příběh vězně v San Quentinu, který je odsouzen k trestu smrti a sepisuje své poslední roky ve věznici. Dostává se mu nelidskému zacházení a mučení a díky svému "mentálnímu nastavení" to vše dokáže přežívat a ve svých myšlenkách uniká do jiných sfér a prožívá své minulé životy. ,,Není smrti. Život je duch a duch nemůže zemřít. Jen tělo umírá a pomíjí, duch zůstává.''<a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/knihy" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@knihy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.arch-linux.cz/tags/kniha" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#kniha</a> <a href="https://mastodon.arch-linux.cz/tags/knihy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knihy</a> <a href="https://mastodon.arch-linux.cz/tags/book" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#book</a> <a href="https://mastodon.arch-linux.cz/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#books</a> <a href="https://mastodon.arch-linux.cz/tags/jacklondon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jacklondon</a>

MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History January 12, 1876: Working class novelist Jack London was born. As a kid, he was an oyster pirate in Oakland, along the shores of the San Francisco Bay. As a young man, he became a hobo, riding the rails from town to town, looking for handouts and sometimes work. He wrote about these experiences in his short novel, “The Road.” He was also a lifelong alcoholic, which contributed to his early death. In his novel, “John Barleycorn,” he wrote about both his alcoholism and his experiences as a laborer in numerous low-paid, backbreaking jobs. He was also a socialist and a champion of unions and working-class activism. With respect to strikebreakers, he famously wrote: "After God had finished the rattlesnake, the toad, the vampire, He had some awful substance left with which He made a scab. A scab is a two-legged animal with a cork-screw soul, a water-logged brain, a combination backbone of jelly and glue. Where others have hearts, he carries a tumor of rotten principles." London was also one of the first Haoles (non-Native Hawaiian, or white person) to learn how to surf in Hawaii.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/jacklondon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jacklondon</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#union</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/scab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#scab</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/socialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#socialism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hawaii" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hawaii</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/surfing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#surfing</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/novel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#novel</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/alcoholism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#alcoholism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/oakland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oakland</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/pirate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pirate</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#books</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@bookstadon</a>

MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History August 11, 1894: Federal troops drove over 1,000 jobless workers from the nation's capital. Led by Charles "Hobo" Kelley, an unemployed activist from California, and Jacob Coxey, they camped in Washington D.C. starting in July. Kelley's Hobo Army included a young journalist named Jack London and a young miner-cowboy named Big Bill Haywood. Frank Baum was an observer of the protest and some say it influenced his Wizard of Oz, with the Scarecrow representing the American farmer, the tin man representing industrial workers and the Cowardly Lion representing William Jennings Bryan, all marching on Washington (Oz) to demand redress from the president (the Wizard). 650 miners, led by a "General" Hogan, captured a Northern Pacific train at Butte, Montana, en route to the protest. The Feds caught up with them at Billings, forcing a surrender, but a few eventually made it to Washington. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#washington</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/unemployed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unemployed</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/poverty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#poverty</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/jacklondon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jacklondon</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/bigbillhaywood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bigbillhaywood</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/wizardofoz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wizardofoz</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#union</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/solidarity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#solidarity</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fiction</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/frankbaum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#frankbaum</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/novel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#novel</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#author</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#writer</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#books</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#washington</a> <a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@bookstadon</a>

MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History July 4, 1910: African-American boxer Jack Johnson knocked out white boxer Jim Jeffries in the 15th round, leading to race riots throughout the U.S. 11 separate riots occurred in NYC, alone. There were riots in 50 cities, including New York, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Houston, New Orleans, Atlanta, and St. Louis. At least 20 people died in these riots. Johnson, who was also known as the Galveston Giant, became the first black World Heavyweight champion in 1908, which made him unpopular with the predominantly white audience of boxing. He held that title from 1908-1915 and quickly became the most famous black man of the era. The racism against him was so intense that many, including socialist writer Jack London, called for a Great White Hope to fight him and take away his title. Jeffries, a former heavyweight world champ, came out of retirement specifically to prove “that a white man is better than a Negro.” Johnson’s victory in this fight earned him $65,000 ($2.1 million in today’s dollars). With his winnings, Johnson opened a multi-racial restaurant and nightclub, Club Deluxe, which he ran with his white wife. Because of this, the authorities arrested him for violating the Mann act (transporting women across state lines for immoral purposes). President Trump pardoned him in 2018, something Reagan, both Bushes and even Obama refused to do. Johnson fled the country to avoid arrest, but continued boxing abroad. Eventually he turned himself in and served time at Leavenworth Prison.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/boxing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boxing</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/jackjohnson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jackjohnson</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#racism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#trump</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/obama" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#obama</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/reagan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#reagan</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/riots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#riots</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/prison" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#prison</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/socialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#socialism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/jacklondon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jacklondon</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/jimcrow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jimcrow</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackMastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BlackMastadon</a>
