We at Labor Arts/ LaborArts.org invite you to visit our newest exhbit:

“‘Play It Again, Sam’ — Lost Chords of the Labor and Progressive
Movements”

The exhibit features music from that particularly fertile period of the
labor and progressive movements –the 1930s and 1940s. There are a number of
little known songs, songs that are in danger of passing, unrecognized. into our
musical history, and we have recorded some of them for this exhibit. They are
sung by Henry Foner, whose unerring memory for the lyrics of these songs is
unique.

Labor arts followers who have “lost songs” to add to our list are
encouraged to contribute notice of them to this list.

In solidarity,

Evelyn Jones Rich, Rachel Bernstein and Henry Foner
