The Night that Goldman Spoke at Union Square - Steven Sutcliffe (Ft. Judy Kaye, Lea Michele & Peter Friedman)
[EMMA GOLDMAN, spoken]
I have just returned from Lawrence, Massachusetts where, eight weeks ago, the workers there went on strike. They are starving, their children are dying, but they are holding firm—and we must support them!

[YOUNGER BROTHER]
It was winter in New York
As the snow began to fall
And the workmen's hall had not a seat to spare
When a young man ducked inside
Just to warm himself, was all
The night that Goldman spoke at Union Square

[EMMA GOLDMAN, spoken]
What is happening in Lawrence is happening everywhere. Let us at last make this the land of opportunity for all people, not just the owners. The land of opportunity for Tateh and his Little Girl. We cannot rest!

[YOUNGER BROTHER]
She was speaking loud and fast
Through a haze of noise and heat
And the smell of sweat and anger in the air
The police were standing by
But the crowd was on its feet
The night that Goldman spoke at Union Square

[EMMA GOLDMAN, spoken]
You!

[YOUNGER BROTHER]
He thought he heard her say
