## Resource

Seventy years strong, Marmet, West Virginia, celebrates Labor Day with a powerful tribute to the 1921 Blair Mountain march—a pivotal moment in labor history. Thousands of miners once gathered here before marching for justice, and today’s community honors that legacy as a living tradition. For union leaders, it’s more than history—it’s home, a chance to pass down the courage and sacrifice of past generations. Cecil Roberts, whose great-uncle Bill Blizzard led the march and was later acquitted of treason, sees it as a personal and national reckoning. The fight for workers’ rights continues, fueled by lessons from the past: economic pressure will always push workers to demand change—just as high prices today echo the struggles of yesteryear. This annual gathering isn’t just remembrance—it’s recommitment. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
