Barbarous America

Chicago: National Office Socialist Party, nd. 5.5x8.5 inch double-sided handbill; toned, chipped edges, slight crack along left edge, else good.

"It is pleasanter for us to read about barbarism in other countries than it is to dwell upon barbarism in our own. It is terrible to see thepictures of Mexican peons working under the whip of the master. It is terrible to see the picture of a group of negroes, half-naked, with their hands and feet cut off. But all the atrocities of the Congo will not equal the atrocities committed in one year in America. Of course, it is done differently here. There is no evil intent. The employer doesn't cut off legs and arms through revenge. It is all done in the natural order of industry. Industry must have its killed and injured, and to build up the world's wealth men must sacrifice their limbs, their health, their lives."
