The iww was led by William haywood!
The International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union (ILGWU) employed a more moderate and legalistic approach, focusing on collective bargaining, political engagement, and building alliances with other labor organizations. In contrast, the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) favored direct action and more radical tactics, including strikes and boycotts, often rejecting formal contracts and advocating for worker control of industries. While the ILGWU aimed for integration within the existing labor framework, the IWW sought to challenge and radically transform the capitalist system itself. This fundamental difference in strategy reflected their respective goals and philosophies regarding labor rights and organization.
The Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), a labor union, faced significant persecution under the Sedition Act, particularly during World War I. The act was used to suppress dissent and opposition to the war, leading to the arrest and prosecution of many IWW members for their anti-war stance and advocacy for workers' rights. Their radical views and actions were seen as a threat to national security at the time.

Yes you can. Most IWW members are 'dual carders', being both members of the IWW and their industry specific trade union. While the IWW are cool with this, Unison bosses (and many of the mainstream union bosses) are certainly not, and there have been witch hunts in the past to expell know radicald from Unison. Don't let that deter you though, just don't go round shouting about your IWW membership to the Unison leadership! With membership on the rapid rise, and groups of IWW workers winning some decent vocitories, there's never been a better time to join the One Big Union!

The IWW is a much smaller labor union than the AFL-CIO, but is often more principled from a class-consciousness standpoint. While the AFL-CIO is often willing to compromise and collaborate with the capitalist system, the IWW is a regular critic of capitalism and (though not explicitly political) has leanings toward anarcho-syndicalism and socialism, along with their philosophy of "One Big Union". Historically, the AFL excluded non-whites and women from their union in the early 20th century, while the IWW welcomed people of color and women.
the IWW frightened some people because the wanted t unite women, immigrants, and African Americans to over throw capitalism. (IWW was socialist.)
Use the four criteria mentioned in the introduction of this chapter to evaluate the strength of a labor organization and discuss why the AFL survived and the IWW faded into obscurity.
