[00:00:00] The Night that Goldman Spoke at Union Square - David Loud/Judy Kaye (Judy Kaye)/Peter Friedman/Steven Sutcliffe (Steven Sutcliffe)

[00:00:02] I have just returned from Lawrence Massachusetts

[00:00:05] Where eight weeks ago the workers there went on strike

[00:00:09] They are starving their children are dying but they are holding firm

[00:00:14] And we must support them

[00:00:18] It was winter in New York

[00:00:20] As the snow began to fall

[00:00:22] And the workmen's hall that not a seat to spare

[00:00:26] When a young man docked inside

[00:00:29] Just to warm himself was all

[00:00:31] The night that Goldman spoke at Union Square

[00:00:37] What is happening in Lawrence is happening everywhere

[00:00:40] Let us at last to make this the land

[00:00:43] Of opportunity for all people not just the owners

[00:00:46] The land of opportunity

[00:00:48] For tateh and his little girl

[00:00:49] We cannot rest

[00:00:52] She was speaking loud and fast

[00:00:55] Through a haze of noise and heat

[00:00:57] And the smell of sweat and anger in the air

[00:01:01] The police were standing by

[00:01:03] But the crowd was on it's feet

[00:01:06] The night that Goldman spoke at Union Square

[00:01:12] You he thought he heard her say

[00:01:14] What brings you here today

[00:01:16] Poor young rich boy

[00:01:19] Masturbates for a Vaudeville tart

[00:01:21] What a waste of a fiery heart

[00:01:23] Dear he thought she said

[00:01:25] Poor young bourgeois

[00:01:28] There are things that you've never thought

[00:01:30] Come to Emma and you'll be taught

[00:01:32] Here

[00:01:33] His head was spinning

[00:01:34] People feathered and tarred my friend

[00:01:36] Unions broken and why for

[00:01:38] Children laboring women still enslaved

[00:01:43] Leave you little backyard my friend

[00:01:45] There are causes to die for

[00:01:47] Strike in the gutters of the city

[00:01:49] I have tried to find some meaning

[00:01:51] Strike in the arms of fallen women

[00:01:54] In the thought of suicide

[00:01:55] Strike

[00:01:56] Like a firework unexploded

[00:01:58] Wanting life but never knowing how

[00:02:00] My brother life has meaning

[00:02:02] I'll show you how

[00:02:04] Till now

[00:02:05] My brother you are with us now

[00:02:08] He was calling out her name

[00:02:10] Shouting what he did not know

[00:02:12] And he found that he was standing on a chair

[00:02:16] With a heart as clean and new

[00:02:19] As the freshly fallen snow

[00:02:21] The night that Goldman spoke

[00:02:25] I've been waiting for you

[00:02:27] At Union Square

[00:02:35] Strike strike strike strike strike strike strike strike strike strike strike

[00:02:43] Strike strike strike

[00:02:50] I hate you godd**ned America

[00:02:53] Tateh tateh tateh tateh tateh tateh
