A former fourth-generation Baltimore steelworker penned an impassioned letter following the deadly Clairton Coke Works explosion that killed Timothy Quinn & Steven Menefee. Drawing from experience at bankrupt Bethlehem Steel, the worker argues that corporate acquisition strategies create debt burdens leading to safety compromises. The letter criticizes traditional union approaches & calls for international worker solidarity, socialist consciousness, & general strike action to address systemic capitalist exploitation affecting industrial communities globally.
