- In this installment of "Know your city," Dr. Willis Dunbar explains the Shakespeare Strike. Dunbar gives a brief overview of the strike, which began on September 7, 1948, detailing the companies' decertification of the union representing workers and the impasse that has caused. Dunbar then focuses on the treatment of the Kalamazoo Police force during the strike, as picketers have become increasingly antagonistic towards them. Dunbar argues that this negatively affects morale in the Police Department and destabilizes the community. Dunbar encourages all Kalamazoo citizens to be respectful of the laws of the community and those who enforce them.
