I think your site is excellent, particularly in its uniqueness and as a starting point to spark interest in this area. Do you have any additional information on the names, organizations, and publications involved in the labor movement? If so, it would be great to add that to your site.

Don, Good work. Please note that the first strike in what is now the US was carried out by Polish glass workers in colonial Jamestown!

However, if you are ever in Bridgeport, our historical collection has old city directories and newspaper clippings that might be helpful. I looked at your web site and found it interesting. Thanks for the feedback on our site. M. Witkowski

Thanks for contacting me about your web site. Particularly like the idea of setting up a list of Polish American Labor leaders. Unlike other nationalities - Irish, Jewish etc. - not much has been written/compiled about Polish-Americans.

An important resource preserving the memory of the radicalism and labor militance of Polish-Americans, something which, with the end of the Cold War, should once again become an inspiration to new generations seeking social change.

Just dropped by to bookmark your page. It's very early over here, so I'll return to take a closer look later. I'm very pleased to see the Polish Left traditions covered. I'll be in touch over the other matters. Best wishes, John Bates

Cool. Who designed it. Great Polish Eagle. Do an artical for the Polish Weekly and include the web cite. I'm sure that they will run it. I'll suggest that we include you web page address in the newsletter but you should make the request yourself in writing to PAC/MI - Newsletter, 11333 Jos Campau, Hatramck MI 48212.

Don, it seems since Pershing High, you have not changed much. Still rabble rousing? The Devil's Advocate? I guess that we need to be reminded, at times.

In America there is something for everyone. The Peasant Party was an active, driving force in Polish politics. It will be interesting to see how the Solidarnosc movement will increase or decrease membership in the trade union movement.

Let me introduce myself. I'm an organizer of NOT WELCOME Committee, that did everything possible to stop gen. Jaruzelski and Kiszczak from arriving to USA. I red most of the letters you exchange with Mr. Krupinski, so I have some opinion about your percep ion of events in Poland and conference at the UoM. Unfortunately you are wrong in estimating of number of communists participating at the conference. The former members of Comm.Party are comrades: Kwasniewski, Reykowski, Ciosek, Rakowski and Michnik (?). In addition a number of journalists belong to the same group. comrade Maciej Wierzynski, the long time top communist journalist and presently the dire tor of Warsaw office of Voice of America. Mr. Portter was in Poland setting in Mariott Hotel and looking through the window on the Poles running to work in crowded busses or street cars. I thing that only one way to understand what happened in Poland is to go there and live for a six months. But ith some restrictions. Take as much money as average salary of Polish worker plus the difference between cost of hotel and rent paid by worker. Use the busses and street cars to move around the city, go to by grocery, shoes, cloths. Just live as an averag Pole. Then we can start discussion again. Sincerely, Zbigniew Frank P.S. I have a plenty of books about Solidarity strugle, but all of them are in Polish. If you want I'll send you same of them

Today, let's sing the "Internationale" in memorial to all of the fallen workers all over the world. Even PNCC Bishop Hodur sang the Czerwony Standarsz. Social justice is a forgotten concept. Let's remember it today to celebrate the memory of all worker everywhere.

Dear Don, This is sure different. I don't know if everyone will be able to understand it since I don't. We'll give you an "A" for effort

I hope I am not intruding but would like to ask you about the background of the name Burski listed as a member of Polonia's Labor Hall of Fame in your Polish Americans in American Unions web page to see if there is relevance to my genealogical studies.

Well done Don. I think your website is pretty cool looking and really colorful. It is informative as well. I would be glad to share what information I have on the Koscielski name including coat of arms etc. Yes chances are if our names end with ski th t we are of noble extraction. This sort of doesn't square with our leftie inclinations but there it is. Anyhow, why would you be drawn and quartered? There doesn't seem to be anything offensive here. Frank

Don, I took a look at your pages and found them very impressive. I'm not a specialist on labor movements but found what you have here very informative, especially the church's position on labor movements. I didn't know it held these views. In terms of a brutal, honest evaluation, I think that all I can say is that the initial introduction (where you mention your name, etc.) seems less professional than the rest of what you present in the body of your work. I might think about changing that opening. j hn guzlowski
