The Autobiography of Mother Jones - Part 1 of 3 - by Mary Harris Jones (1830 or 1837-1930)
Mother Jones (Mary Harris Jones) was a legendary labor organizer. She was a founding member of the International Workers of the World (the IWW, or the Wobblies), and was active in the United Mine Workers and the Socialist Party of America. (Summary by Denny)
Mary Harris "Mother" Jones (August 1, 1837 (baptism) [1][2] -- November 30, 1930) was an Irish-American schoolteacher and dressmaker who became a prominent labor and community organizer. She then helped coordinate major strikes and co-founded the Industrial Workers of the World.
Jones worked as a teacher and dressmaker, but after her husband and four children all died of yellow fever and her workshop was destroyed in a fire in 1871, she began working as an organizer for the Knights of Labor and the United Mine Workers union. She was a very effective speaker, punctuating her speeches with stories, audience participation, humor and dramatic stunts. From 1897 (when she was 60) she was known as Mother Jones and in 1902 she was called "the most dangerous woman in America" for her success in organizing mine workers and their families against the mine owners. In 1903, upset about the lax enforcement of the child labor laws in the Pennsylvania mines and silk mills, she organized a Children's March from Philadelphia to the home of then president Theodore Roosevelt in New York.
The magazine Mother Jones, established in 1970, is named after her.
Background
Mary Harris was born on the northside of Cork, Ireland, the daughter of a Roman Catholic tenant farmer, Richard Harris, and his wife, Ellen Cotter.[3] She was baptized on August 1, 1837.[1]
Some recent materials list her baptism as August 1, 1837, although she claimed her birth date to be May 1, 1830.[1] Her claims to an earlier date may have been an appeal to her grandmotherly image. The date of May 1 was possibly chosen symbolically, to represent the national labor holiday and anniversary of the Haymarket affair.
Jones emigrated with her family to Canada when she was roughly fourteen or fifteen years old.[4] The young Mary acquired a Catholic education in Toronto before her family moved to the United States.[4] She became a teacher in a convent in Monroe, Michigan. After becoming tired of her assumed profession, she moved first to Chicago and later to Memphis, where she married George E. Jones, a member and organizer of the National Union of Iron Moulders,[5] later the International Molders and Foundry Workers Union of North America, in 1861.[6] She eventually opened a dress shop in Memphis on the eve of the Civil War(from Wikipedia)

Mary Harris "Mother" Jones is filmed by a newspaper reporter on the occasion of her 100th birthday while living in Adelphi, MD in 1930. This is the only known moving image and audio recording of the "Grand Old Champion of Labor." Mother Jones was a tireless advocate for workers and children and her work as an organizer for mine workers is particularly noted. The footage was taken from a longer video produced to commemorate the dedication of a Prince George's County, MD school named for and dedicated to Mother Jones.

In December 2014, Mother Jones senior reporter Shane Bauer started a job as a corrections officer at a Louisiana prison run by the Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), the country's second-largest private prison company. During his four months on the job, Bauer would witness stabbings, an escape, lockdowns, and an intervention by the state Department of Corrections as the company struggled to maintain control. Bauer's gripping, revelatory investigation is the cover story in Mother Jones' July/August 2016 issue. Read the full story here: http://www.motherjones.com/prison
In the second episode of Mother Jones's exclusive six-part video series, Bauer learns about an escape by a Winn inmate and discovers guards struggling to survive on $9 an hour.

Mary Harris "Mother" Jones (1837 – 30 November 1930) was an Irish-American schoolteacher and dressmaker who became a prominent labor and community organizer. She then helped coordinate major strikes and cofounded the Industrial Workers of the World.
Jones worked as a teacher and dressmaker, but after her husband and four children all died of yellow fever in 1867, and her dress shop was destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, she began working as an organizer for the Knights of Labor and the United Mine Workers union. From 1897, at around 60 years of age, she was known as Mother Jones. In 1902 she was called "the most dangerous woman in America" for her success in organizing mine workers and their families against the mine owners. In 1903, upset about the lax enforcement of the child labor laws in the Pennsylvania mines and silk mills, she organized a Children's March from Philadelphia to the home of then president Theodore Roosevelt in New York. Mother Jones magazine, established in 1970, is named for her.
In The American Songbag, Carl Sandburg suggests that the "she" in "She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain" references Mother Jones and her travels to Appalachian mountain coal-mining camps promoting the unionization of the miners.[32]
"Union Maid", a song written by Woody Guthrie, calls for women to emulate Mother Jones by fighting for women's and workers' rights.
"The most dangerous woman," a spoken-word performance by indie folk singer/spoken word performer Utah Phillips with music and backing vocals added to it by indie folk artist Ani Difranco, can be found on their collaborative album Fellow Workers. The title refers to the moniker that President Theodore Roosevelt gave[citation needed] to Mother Jones, referring to her as "the most dangerous woman in America." Utah Phillips performed the song "The Charge on Mother Jones." This folk song was written by William M. Rogers.[33]
In Uncle the Elephant by John Percival Martin, a train line is called Mother Jones' Siding and is rumoured to be run by Mother Jones herself.
"The Spirit of Mother Jones" is a track on the 2010 Abocurragh album by Irish singer-songwriter Andy Irvine.[34]
The title track of folk-roots duo Wishing Chair and Kara Barnard's 2002 album Dishpan Brigade[35] is about Jones and her role in the 1899–1900 miners' strike in Arnot, Pennsylvania.[36]
Jones is the "woman" in Tom Russell's song "The Most Dangerous Woman in America," a commentary on the troubles of striking miners that appeared on his 2009 album Blood and Candle Smoke on the Shout! Factory label.
The play The Kentucky Cycle: Fire in the hole portrays Jones as an inspirational figure one of the other characters knew and was inspired by to go and create unions in other coal towns.
A musical based on her work in Pennsylvania, "Mother Jones and the Children's Crusade" debuted in July 2014 as part of the New York Musical Theatre Festival in NYC. The play will star Robin de Jesus and Lynne Wintersteller.

"After NBC News suspended anchor Brian Williams for erroneously claiming that he was nearly shot down in a helicopter while covering the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly went on a tear. On his television show, the top-rated cable news anchor declared that the American press isn't "half as responsible as the men who forged the nation." He bemoaned the supposed culture of deception within the liberal media, and he proclaimed that the Williams controversy should prompt questioning of other "distortions" by left-leaning outlets. Yet for years, O'Reilly has recounted dramatic stories about his own war reporting that don't withstand scrutiny—even claiming he acted heroically in a war zone that he apparently never set foot in.
O'Reilly has repeatedly told his audience that he was a war correspondent during the Falklands war and that he experienced combat during that 1982 conflict between the United Kingdom* and Argentina. He has often invoked this experience to emphasize that he understands war as only someone who has witnessed it could. As he once put it, "I've been there. That's really what separates me from most of these other bloviators. I bloviate, but I bloviate about stuff I've seen. They bloviate about stuff that they haven't."
Fox News and O'Reilly did not respond to multiple requests for comment.*

My Four Months as a Private Prison Guard: Part FiveMy Four Months as a Private Prison Guard: Part Five
In December 2014, Mother Jones senior reporter Shane Bauer started a job as a corrections officer at a Louisiana prison run by the Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), the country's second-largest private prison company. During his four months on the job, Bauer would witness stabbings, an escape, lockdowns, and an intervention by the state Department of Corrections as the company struggled to maintain control. Bauer's gripping, revelatory investigation is the cover story in Mother Jones' July/August 2016 issue. Read the full story here: http://www.motherjones.com/prison In the fifth episode of Mother Jones's exclusive six-part video series, CCA's tactical team sweeps Winn after a series of violent incidents. The prison is placed on lockdown.

Customs Agent Tom Evans is given the assignment of running down a smuggling ring which hijacks Canadian fur-shipper's trucks and sells the loot in the United States. He gets a job with the trucking firm that has been hijacked the most by the gang, and is a hijack victim his first night on the road. Several clues lead him to the thieve's trail, but he overplays his cards at the head-office of the fur shippers, and is identified as a Customs Agent.

Famous quotes by Mother Jones:
"I preferred sewing to bossing little children."
"I'm past the point of no return,"
"He'll let the lawsuit do the talking."
"My teachers treated me as a diamond in the rough, someone who needed smoothing."
"I'm not a humanitarian, I'm a hell-raiser."
"My address is like my shoes. It travels with me. I abide where there is a fight against wrong."
"Injustice boils in men's hearts as does steel in its cauldron, ready to pour forth, white hot, in the fullness of time"
"I learned in the early part of my career that labor must bear the cross for others' sins, must be the vicarious sufferer for the wrongs that others do"
"Whatever your fight, don't be ladylike"
"Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living"
"I learned in the early part of my career that labor must bear the cross for others' sins, must be the vicarious sufferer for the wrongs that others do."
"Some day the workers will take possession of your city hall, and when we do, no child will be sacrificed on the altar of profit!"
"The miners lost because they had only the constitution. The other side had bayonets. In the end, bayonets always win."
"I am not afraid of the pen, or the scaffold, or the sword. I will tell the truth wherever I please."
"If they want to hang me, let them. And on the scaffold I will shout Freedom for the working class!"
"I believe that no man who holds a leader's position should ever accept favors from either side. He is then committed to show favors. A leader must stand alone."
"That is, the wife must care for what the husband cares for if he is to remain resolute."
"Injustice boils in men's hearts as does steel in its cauldron, ready to pour forth, white hot, in the fullness of time."
"Whatever your fight, don't be ladylike."
"Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living."

Mother Jones Catches Bill O'Reilly Lying About Falkland Island War Coverage
"After NBC News suspended anchor Brian Williams for erroneously claiming that he was nearly shot down in a helicopter while covering the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly went on a tear. On his television show, the top-rated cable news anchor declared that the American press isn't "half as responsible as the men who forged the nation." He bemoaned the supposed culture of deception within the liberal media, and he proclaimed that the Williams controversy should prompt questioning of other "distortions" by left-leaning outlets. Yet for years, O'Reilly has recounted dramatic stories about his own war reporting that don't withstand scrutiny—even claiming he acted heroically in a war zone that he apparently never set foot in.

Mother Jones (Mary Harris Jones) was a legendary labor organizer. She was a founding member of the International Workers of the World (the IWW, or the Wobblies), and was active in the United Mine Workers and the Socialist Party of America. (Summary by Denny)
Mary Harris "Mother" Jones (August 1, 1837 (baptism) [1][2] -- November 30, 1930) was an Irish-American schoolteacher and dressmaker who became a prominent labor and community organizer. She then helped coordinate major strikes and co-founded the Industrial Workers of the World.
Jones worked as a teacher and dressmaker, but after her husband and four children all died of yellow fever and her workshop was destroyed in a fire in 1871, she began working as an organizer for the Knights of Labor and the United Mine Workers union. She was a very effective speaker, punctuating her speeches with stories, audience participation, humor and dramatic stunts. From 1897 (when she was 60) she was known as Mother Jones and in 1902 she was called "the most dangerous woman in America" for her success in organizing mine workers and their families against the mine owners. In 1903, upset about the lax enforcement of the child labor laws in the Pennsylvania mines and silk mills, she organized a Children's March from Philadelphia to the home of then president Theodore Roosevelt in New York.
The magazine Mother Jones, established in 1970, is named after her.
Background
Mary Harris was born on the northside of Cork, Ireland, the daughter of a Roman Catholic tenant farmer, Richard Harris, and his wife, Ellen Cotter.[3] She was baptized on August 1, 1837.[1]
Some recent materials list her baptism as August 1, 1837, although she claimed her birth date to be May 1, 1830.[1] Her claims to an earlier date may have been an appeal to her grandmotherly image. The date of May 1 was possibly chosen symbolically, to represent the national labor holiday and anniversary of the Haymarket affair.
Jones emigrated with her family to Canada when she was roughly fourteen or fifteen years old.[4] The young Mary acquired a Catholic education in Toronto before her family moved to the United States.[4] She became a teacher in a convent in Monroe, Michigan. After becoming tired of her assumed profession, she moved first to Chicago and later to Memphis, where she married George E. Jones, a member and organizer of the National Union of Iron Moulders,[5] later the International Molders and Foundry Workers Union of North America, in 1861.[6] She eventually opened a dress shop in Memphis on the eve of the Civil War(from Wikipedia)

Mary Harris "Mother" Jones (1837 – 30 November 1930) was an Irish-American schoolteacher and dressmaker who became a prominent labor and community organizer. She then helped coordinate major strikes and cofounded the Industrial Workers of the World.
Jones worked as a teacher and dressmaker, but after her husband and four children all died of yellow fever in 1867, and her dress shop was destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, she began working as an organizer for the Knights of Labor and the United Mine Workers union.

Mother Jones magazine, established in 1970, is named for her.
In The American Songbag, Carl Sandburg suggests that the "she" in "She'll Be Coming 'Round the Mountain" references Mother Jones and her travels to Appalachian mountain coal-mining camps promoting the unionization of the miners.[32]
"Union Maid", a song written by Woody Guthrie, calls for women to emulate Mother Jones by fighting for women's and workers' rights.
"The most dangerous woman," a spoken-word performance by indie folk singer/spoken word performer Utah Phillips with music and backing vocals added to it by indie folk artist Ani Difranco, can be found on their collaborative album Fellow Workers. The title refers to the moniker that President Theodore Roosevelt gave[citation needed] to Mother Jones, referring to her as "the most dangerous woman in America." Utah Phillips performed the song "The Charge on Mother Jones." This folk song was written by William M. Rogers.[33]
In Uncle the Elephant by John Percival Martin, a train line is called Mother Jones' Siding and is rumoured to be run by Mother Jones herself.
"The Spirit of Mother Jones" is a track on the 2010 Abocurragh album by Irish singer-songwriter Andy Irvine.[34]
The title track of folk-roots duo Wishing Chair and Kara Barnard's 2002 album Dishpan Brigade[35] is about Jones and her role in the 1899–1900 miners' strike in Arnot, Pennsylvania.[36]
Jones is the "woman" in Tom Russell's song "The Most Dangerous Woman in America," a commentary on the troubles of striking miners that appeared on his 2009 album Blood and Candle Smoke on the Shout! Factory label.
The play The Kentucky Cycle: Fire in the hole portrays Jones as an inspirational figure one of the other characters knew and was inspired by to go and create unions in other coal towns.
A musical based on her work in Pennsylvania, "Mother Jones and the Children's Crusade" debuted in July 2014 as part of the New York Musical Theatre Festival in NYC. The play will star Robin de Jesus and Lynne Wintersteller.

O'Reilly has repeatedly told his audience that he was a war correspondent during the Falklands war and that he experienced combat during that 1982 conflict between the United Kingdom* and Argentina. He has often invoked this experience to emphasize that he understands war as only someone who has witnessed it could. As he once put it, "I've been there. That's really what separates me from most of these other bloviators. I bloviate, but I bloviate about stuff I've seen. They bloviate about stuff that they haven't."
Fox News and O'Reilly did not respond to multiple requests for comment.*

wn.com/Mother Jones Catches Bill O'Reilly Lying About Falkland Island War Coverage
"After NBC News suspended anchor Brian Williams for erroneously claiming that he was nearly shot down in a helicopter while covering the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly went on a tear. On his television show, the top-rated cable news anchor declared that the American press isn't "half as responsible as the men who forged the nation." He bemoaned the supposed culture of deception within the liberal media, and he proclaimed that the Williams controversy should prompt questioning of other "distortions" by left-leaning outlets. Yet for years, O'Reilly has recounted dramatic stories about his own war reporting that don't withstand scrutiny—even claiming he acted heroically in a war zone that he apparently never set foot in.
O'Reilly has repeatedly told his audience that he was a war correspondent during the Falklands war and that he experienced combat during that 1982 conflict between the United Kingdom* and Argentina. He has often invoked this experience to emphasize that he understands war as only someone who has witnessed it could. As he once put it, "I've been there. That's really what separates me from most of these other bloviators. I bloviate, but I bloviate about stuff I've seen. They bloviate about stuff that they haven't."
Fox News and O'Reilly did not respond to multiple requests for comment.*

In December 2014, Mother Jones senior reporter Shane Bauer started a job as a corrections officer at a Louisiana prison run by the Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), the country's second-largest private prison company. During his four months on the job, Bauer would witness stabbings, an escape, lockdowns, and an intervention by the state Department of Corrections as the company struggled to maintain control. Bauer's gripping, revelatory investigation is the cover story in Mother Jones' July/August 2016 issue. Read the full story here: http://www.motherjones.com/prison
In the first episode of Mother Jones's exclusive six-part video series, Bauer visits Winn Correctional Center for the first time and dives into four weeks of training as a prison guard.

Mother Jones Goes All Jezebel on the MHRM
Mother Jones is an old school liberal publication with some respectable creds. Mariah Blake is a new school feminist. The combination was good for the latter, not so much for the former. Blake recently used up 6,000 words of column space to pen a disingenuous attack piece on the MHRM, particularly on Warren Farrell, Paul Elam and AVFM. Pity after months of research and all that writing she offered up nothing different than what every second rate blogger in the yellow world of online feminism has been producing for five years. In the process she took down any journalistic credibility that Mother Jones ever had.

Mother Jones Reporter David Corn on the Secret Romney Video That's Upended 2012 Campaign
DemocracyNow.org - Mother Jones reporter David Corn joins us to discuss how he released the now notorious video of Mitt Romney telling a crowd of wealthy donors in Florida that he does not worry about the 47 percent of Americans who are "dependent" on government and see themselves as "victims." Romney's comments have divided Republicans with some saying he should stand by his statements, and others suggesting he should renounce them. The Washington bureau chief for Mother Jones, Corn is also the author of "Showdown: The Inside Story of How Obama Battled the GOP to Set Up the 2012 Election."

DemocracyNow.org - Mother Jones reporter David Corn joins us to discuss how he released the now notorious video of Mitt Romney telling a crowd of wealthy donors in Florida that he does not worry about the 47 percent of Americans who are "dependent" on government and see themselves as "victims." Romney's comments have divided Republicans with some saying he should stand by his statements, and others suggesting he should renounce them. The Washington bureau chief for Mother Jones, Corn is also the author of "Showdown: The Inside Story of How Obama Battled the GOP to Set Up the 2012 Election."
