Humanities grant awarded to West Virginia Mine Wars Museum @WarsWV (Mingo County) for “A Window into History: Upgrading the Bloody Mingo Exhibit in the West Virginia Mine Wars Museum” 8/
This is the inaugural From Below group, 34 folks from around West Virginia and across the globe who spent the weekend immersed in the history, culture, struggles, and hopes of the southern coalfields, and discovered how the faith community can make a difference here...
The inaugural #CampSolidarity was amazing. It's hard to put into words what an inspirational event this was. Folks from 33 organizations (mostly unions) 17 states, & 3 countries came. Attendees got to experience the @WarsWV & walk the streets where labor history was made.
I am getting ready to start the day after spending an amazing afternoon at #CampSolidarity and visiting the @WarsWV. I am looking forward to today's sessions. It was great to meet @LaborRecipes in person.
@WarsWV Can't wait to check this video out, I hope to make it down there one day
TONIGHT!
