Today in Labor History June 14, 1848: Afro-Cuban revolutionary and guerrilla leader Antonio Maceo was born (1848-1896). Known as the "Titan of Bronze," Maceo helped defeat the Spanish and win Cuban independence. People also called him the “Greater Lion.” He participated in over 500 battles during the Ten Years’ War. He earned the Bronze Titan moniker after surviving numerous gunshot and blade wounds. He rose to the rank of Brigadier General within five years. However, he would have risen more quickly if it weren’t for racism.

Today in Labor History February 24, 1895: Revolution broke out in Baire, near Santiago de Cuba. This was the beginning of the Cuban War of Independence (1895-1898). The liberation war ended with the Spanish-American War and the U.S. taking Cuba as a colony. Some of the more well-known commanders of the Cuban revolution were the poet Jose Marti (composer of “Guantanamera”) and Antonio Maceo, the Titan of Bronze.
