Numbered limited edition of 2. IWW or Industrial Workers of the World was a radical workers' organization founded in Chicago in 1905 with the aim of abolishing the wage system and joining all the world's workers in one big trade union. Among IWW's anarchosyndicalist slogans were sabotage, direct action, and general strike. Music played a very important role in the organization's activities. IWW also had a lot of American Finnish members who translated the movement's songs into finnish and published their own songbooks. Laulava Unioni, ”The Singing Union” is a band founded in 2017 in Helsinki, Finland, that performs the songs of the American Finnish ”Wobblies”. The two songs were recorded live at Juttutupa in 26 April 2018.
