Today in Labor History September 16, 1873: Ricardo Flores Magón was born. He was a revolutionary Mexican anarchist, founder of the Mexican Liberal Party, and major player in the Mexican revolution of 1910-1917. He was also a member of the anarchosyndicalist union, the IWW, and founding editor of the newspaper, Regeneracion. In the wake of the deadly Cananea Copper Strike, he organized a brigade of revolutionaries to avenge the deaths of striking workers. Later, during the Mexican Revolution, he helped lead an invasion of Baja California in which major cities, like Tijuana, were conquered. In the U.S., after the Revolution, he was sentenced to 20 years in prison for his opposition to World War I, and died in Leavenworth Prison in 1922.
