The Industrial Workers of the World are a union of fellow workers who have organized together against the predations of the bosses and the employing class. We practice horizontal democracy and work towards a world when those that produce all the wealth, the long struggling workers, will finally wrest control of the means of production from the leaches who exploit us and build a better world from t
he shell of the old. We are dedicated to the long struggle through education, direct action, and solidarity with our brothers and sisters across the world. When it comes to the sorry state of the world, listen to Joe Hill's words; "Don't mourn, organize!"
