Join us for a re-enactment of the Battle of the Halsted Viaduct, a key moment in Chicago history during the 1877 national labor uprising.

We'll be restaging scenes from the battles that took over 30 workers' lives, and bulding on the movement to demand that the city memorialize this fight of immigrant labor for justice and dignity!

Part of the Public Media Institute's subVersion Summer Camp.
