Today in Labor History May 5, 1886: The Bay View Massacre occurred in Milwaukee, one day after the Haymarket bombing, in Chicago. Workers in both cities were demonstrating for the 8-hour work-day. There were approximately 1,400 strikes that year for the 8-hour day. In Milwaukee, the governor called out the state militia. They shot and killed seven protesters, including a 14-year-old boy. No militiamen were ever charged. However, the authorities convicted fifty of the strikers and sentenced them to hard labor for "rioting."

"Bayview has changed. Once one of the last remaining Black neighborhoods in San Francisco and a relatively affordable place, it is now more Asian and Latino than Black. It remains one of the poorest neighborhoods in the city, beset by radiation at the old Navy shipyard, poorly served by transit, and often ignored by the rest of the city.

Residents love it though — it’s home. The weather is superior here, they say, families are plentiful, and neighbors are welcoming. People drive too fast and the city could increase services, they say, but it’s diverse and working-class, and that keeps it stable."

[Podcast] A Community of Color Contends With the Navy’s #Toxic Legacy

Decades after the Navy shuttered a #ColdWar #radiation research lab, the mess hasn’t been completely cleaned up. Listen to local voices demanding accountability amid charges of #EnvironmentalRacism.

By Rebecca Bowe, 11.25.2024

"The San Francisco Public Press presents the first half of a two-part radio documentary, '#Exposed,' opening a window into the little-known history of the #HuntersPointNavalShipyard. The sprawling abandoned naval base, in #SanFrancisco’s southeast waterfront #Bayview neighborhood, is currently the site of the city’s largest real estate development project. The base played a key role in the Cold War nuclear era, when it housed a research institution known as the Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory [#NRDL], which studied the human health effects of #radiation.

"In Episode 1 of the podcast, we trace the radioactive contamination found in the shipyard soil today back to its origins, with #NuclearBomb testing in the #MarshallIslands. We also hear from #EnvironmentalJustice advocates, including one who led a health biomonitoring survey revealing that nearby residents have toxic elements stored in body tissues that match the hazardous chemicals of concern identified at the shipyard.

"This radio documentary is part of a larger multimedia package stemming from a deep dive into declassified government records produced by the radiation lab in the 1940s, ’50s and ’60s. Listen to Episode 2 of the podcast: 'Why the Navy Conducted Radiation Experiments on Humans.'"
