COVID-19 in Kansas: Pandemic can lead to worker solidarity

WICHITA, Kansas  On Aug. 25, 1922, in a headline for an article in the weekly labor newspaper, the Plaindealer, George T. Ashley posed a question to Wichita union members: “Will organized labor survive or perish?” Just a few years after the end of World War I and the start of the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic, of which the first cases in the United States were recorded in Kansas, Ashley wrote that organized labor was then experiencing its most critical period. “During the late war organized labor, for the first time in its history, came into its own,” he wrote. “But the victory gained was apparently only temporary, born of the stress of the times, rather than to any solidarity in its organization, or wisdom in its management.”
