Bread and Roses Heritage Festival

The Bread and Roses Heritage Festival is an annual, open-air festival in Lawrence, Massachusetts that celebrates labor history, cultural diversity, and social justice. It is a free, day-long event featuring live music and dance, children’s activities, theater and spoken word performances, walking and trolley tours, ethnic food, Lawrence History Live! and information from local organizations involved in social justice issues. The Bread And Roses Heritage Committee produces the event. The festival has occurred every year on Labor Day since its inception 28 years ago. Bread and Roses is the only broadly multicultural festival in Lawrence, the Immigrant City. The festival's name refers to the "Bread and Roses strike" of 1912, when over 20,000 immigrant workers in Lawrence, Massachusetts protested wage cuts for over two months, led by the Industrial Workers of the World. The strike was notable for its short-term success, despite ethnic divisions among the workers and the preponderance of women among the protesters.〔Bread and Roses strike
==History of the slogan "Bread and Roses"==
The slogan "Bread and Roses" originated in a speech given by Rose Schneiderman; a line in that speech ("The worker must have bread, but she must have roses, too."〔Eisenstein, Sarah, Give us bread but give us roses. Working women's consciousness in the United States, 1890 to the First World War, Routledge, London 1983, p. 32, ISBN 0-7100-9479-5/〕) inspired the title of the poem ''Bread and Roses'' by James Oppenheim, published in The American Magazine in December 1911, which attributed it to "the women in the West." It is now commonly associated with the 1912 textile strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts. The slogan appeals for both fair wages and dignified conditions. The strike and slogan have been the inspiration for the names of a diverse collection of organisations and publications.
