An Oregon activist and musician filmed the video above, about Coos Bay Longshoreman Harry Stamper. He writes:
Harry Stamper is a retired longshoreman, union activist, and songwriter who resides in Coos Bay, Oregon. For decades, Harry has been writing songs about occupational safety, union organizing, and working on the docks in Southern Oregon. Many of his songs have been sung by folksingers and activists throughout the Pacific Northwest, and some of his songs have entered the labor music canon. “We Just Come to Work Here,” an infectious tune about workplace safety, is probably Stamper’s most famous song, and it is featured on the Smithsonian Folkways Collection “Classic Labor Songs.”
