- Abstract:
- Pages from a local East Chicago, IN, publication commemorating the 1937 Memorial Day Massacre at South Chicago's Republic Steel. Lupe Gallardo Marshall (Mexican immigrant social worker at Hull House) gave this testimony to the La Follette Committee of Congress investigating the events of that day, May 30, 1937. I am thinking about writing a play about Lupe Gallardo Marshall.
- Notes:
- This is a "back burner" project but one that calls for a play. Every year these events grow more and more remote and figures like Lupe Gallardo Marshall become invisible to history.
