ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY

The Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), commonly known as the Wobblies is an industrial union formed in Chicago in 1905. The IWW promotes the concept of 'One Big Union' and is considered a radical trade union, who opposes most of the policies of the American Federation of Labor. Membership does not require that one work in a represented workplace, nor does it exclude membership in another labor union. The Wobblies believe that all workers should organize as a class, not according to craft. The IWW emphasized rank- and-file organization as opposed to empowering leaders who would bargain with employers.
The biggest contribution the IWW had on the labor movement was when founded it allowed everyone to join, women, immigrants, African Americans and Asians.
As of 2005, the 100th Anniversary of its founding, the IWW had around 5,000 members.
