Dancers from the Lusty Lady in San Francisco, the first US strip club to unionize. After the owners tried to shut it down the workers raised the money to buy the club and it remained a worker-owned collective until it closed down in 2013. This picture is from a parade float when they were first working to unionize in the late 90s. They were unionized with the AFL-CIO.

Even in winter it shall be green in my heart
When the green woods laugh with the voice of joy
And the dumpling stream runs laughing by
When the air does laugh with our merry wit
And the green hill laughs with the noise of it
As long as you’re green, you’re growing. As soon as you’re ripe, you start to rot
A man who contemplates revenge keeps his wounds green
