The article that I read, and am looking for was a fairly thorough academic piece on the events, and appeared in an obscure academic magazine 30 years or so(I can't remember the name of the magazine)--

I I dug it out of a a file in the State of Michigan Library while doing research for my famous(at least in my mind) Michigan BiCentennial Folkmusic project--It focussed a lot on Big Annie and the union movement--Unfortunately, the files for this project, including my transcriptions of songs, all my notes and narrative, and the historic recording of my show that was made but never broadcast, have all disappeared over the years(And no!! Contrary to stories that circulated at the time, the show was not shelved because I said"Goddammit!!" when I popped a string--it was because the show consisted of a lot of back and forth with schoolkids, and we neglected to get releases...)

I mention this not only out of a pathetic need for retro-active self-aggrandizement, but also just to bring out the point that of all of the stuff I presented, this song and the story behind it were the thing that the kids always focussed on--
