Explanation:

Edgar Allen Poe's "The Raven" tells the encounter of the narrator/ speaker with a raven in his chambers on a "bleak December" midnight. At first, the speaker seems amused and marveled at the raven, even impressed with it's ability to talk but even though with just a single word "nevermore". As he continued interacting with the raven, he became reminded of his long lost love "Lenore" who had died. Connecting the bird's appearance and message to her, he began to believe the bird is a demon with it's "fiery eyes". In the end, with the bird still in his room, sitting on the bust of Athena, he believes that the bird is throwing a shadow over his soul forever- "that shadow that lies floating on the floor / Shall be lifted—nevermore!"

the author is showing that it is the insatisfaction of basic needs that brings about the protests such as the strikes.if workers do not earn enough to buy food and feed their families and themselves in order to continue working, what is the use of working? besides, another message from the author is that of the owners of factories should be worried about ensuring their furure by having a second and third generation of workers in their industries.if they do not hear the workers demands, they will not have any more workers to make their pockets full.
