A deep, solid reflection on the industrial disasters and legal injustices to the victims that followed in the 20s and the Depression. This poetry is hard to read, and yet necessary because memory is that which we can offer in solidarity with generations of the hurt and protest against systems that deny justice to the poor and the victimized.
