Mother Jones visited the Edwardsville Illinois tornado damaged Amazon Hub warehouse where 6 workers died to raise hell about the lack of support that the workers received after the disaster. She called the unsafe warehouses mausoleums. She said what the workers need for Christmas was not an Amazon gift card but a union. Mother Jones knows suffering. After leaving Ireland during the great hunger she eventually married Iron Molder union leader, George Jones and they had 4 children. She lost them all in Memphis to the Yellow Fever. She took her belongings to Chicago and opened a small dress making business only to soon lose it to the great Chicago fire. Mother Jones died in 1930 and is buried in Union Miner's Cemetery in Chicago IL. Loretta Rymer Williams who portrays her is the only MJ re-enactor to have performed both in her country of birth, the Shandon district of Cork Ireland and at her final resting place, in Union Miner's Cemetery in Mt. Olive IL.
