The "Wobblies" is a nickname for members of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), a radical labor organization founded in 1905 in the United States. The IWW aimed to unite all workers, regardless of skill level or industry, to promote worker solidarity and achieve better working conditions through direct action, including strikes and boycotts. Advocating for socialism and the abolition of the capitalist system, the Wobblies played a significant role in early 20th-century labor movements but faced intense government repression and internal challenges. Their legacy continues to influence labor activism today.
