Memorial Day 1937
It was May 30 that year and the Chicago Police Department shot and
killed ten unarmed demonstrators during the 'Little Steel Strike'.
History records the incident as the Memorial Day Massacre of 1937. As
her preparations to leave Miami near completion, Amelia doubtless heard
the news and recalled a piece she had written when she wrote for
Cosmopolitan Magazine.
