Imagine that you are a striking worker in 1905 who is being tried in court for your act of rebellion. Draft a speech you would make in your defence.

Dear Student,
Such questions are meant for the development of your creative writing skills.Here are some points for your help. Based on the points I urge you to attempt the question youself:
We the workers of the Lenin Shipyard in Gdansk started a strike in protest against the communist government of Poland.
We the strikes started in August 14, 1980. The immediate reason was the dismissal of a popular crane worker Anna Walentynowicz. The strikes were led by Lech Walesa, a former electrician in the shipyard who had been dismissed in 1976. The specific demands of the strikers are
 
1. The rehiring of Walentynowicz and Walesa,

2. Respect for workers' rights and concerns

3. Legalization of independent trade unions

4. Raising of a monument to the shipyard workers who had been killed in 1970.
Regards
