Here in the US, this is the Labor Day weekend, a holiday created in recognition of the organized labor movement.
"Whatever their faults, unions have been the only powerful and effective voice working people have ever had in the history of this country."
—Bruce Springsteen
"Although it is true that only about 20 percent of American workers are in unions, that 20 percent sets the standards across the board in salaries, benefits and working conditions. If you are making a decent salary in a non-union company, you owe that to the unions. One thing that corporations do not do is give out money out of the goodness of their hearts."
—Molly Ivins
"If hard work were such a wonderful thing, surely the rich would have kept it all to themselves."
—Lane Kirkland
"Every advance in this half-century—Social Security, civil rights, Medicare, aid to education, one after another—came with the support and leadership of American Labor."
—Jimmy Carter
"The labor movement is the last noble protest of the American people against the power of incorporated wealth."
—Wendell Phillips

Coffee farm workers in Colombia participate in a training on workers rights. We are partnering with local governmental organization SENA (National Learning Service) in Colombia to support independent training on rights and responsibilities. The work with local partners is important since it allows us to take advantage of local knowledge and it helps us to go a longer way with the resources we have to support workers.

I usually don't expect a fee for private viewing, projects, school work, charity work, etc. Also if you wanted to use any images as a base for a private artwork or poster, I would love to see the final product (as long as it is legal and doesn't defame anyone).
Although I do need to charge for other professional, corporate or commercial uses, as I also have to make money to live. I can then supply a high resolution finished image which is sized to your needs.
