Jay Fox (1870-1961) was a journalist, intellectual, and labor
militant whose influence rippled across the country. In Writing
Labor's Emancipation, historian Greg Hall traces Fox's unorthodox
life to highlight the shifting dynamics in US labor radicalism from
the late nineteenth to the early twentieth century. Radicalized as
a teenager after witnessing the Haymarket tragedy, Fox embarked on
a lifetime of union organizing, building anarchist communities
(including Home, Washington), and writing. Thanks to his sharp wit,
he became an influential voice, often in dialogue with fellow
anarchists such as Emma Goldman and Lucy Parsons. Hall both
explores Fox's life and shines a light on the utopians,
revolutionaries, and union men and women with whom Fox associated
and debated. Hall's research provides valuable knowledge of the
lived experiences of working-class Americans and reveals
alternative visions for activism and social change.
