I apologize if I'm doing this incorrectly, but the above topic suggests that any further discussion should be added as a separate post on the talk page. In terms of cultural relevance the following is an important footnote for the prominence of the Organizer Joe Hill.
here is a selection of songs titled "Joe Hill" about the aforementioned Organizer:
Joe Hill - We Have Fed You All For a Thousand Years - Utah Phillips
Joe Hill - If I Had a Hammer: Songs of Hope and Struggle - Peet Seeger
Joe Hill - The Collector's Paul Robeson - Paul Robeson
Joe Hill - The Internationale - Billy Bragg
Joe Hill - Carry it On - Joan Baez
Joe Hill - The Collection - Luke Kelly
I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill Last Night - Union Town - Tom Morello: The Nightwatchman
Joe Hill - Four Friends Live - The High Kings
Joe Hill - Revolution - The Dubliners
This is only a small selection of the songs bearing the name of the Organizer Joe Hill, and it seems that in terms of cultural relevance having a sizable number of culturally significant musicians having a rendition of "I Dreamt I Saw Joe Hill Last Night" signifies that the Organizer has a significant historical importance.
There is also an editorial perspective that could be viewed as significant. The labor movement in the United States is often a footnote in US history education. Raising an author over an important figure of that movement plays into the political, and cultural forces trying to suppress knowledge about the history of the labor movement in the United States.
