For my advanced US history class my teacher is thinking about letting me do a section on the IWW, because he isn't a pro at it I said I would see what I could do.
Does any one know how I should go about this? Any websites for high school level?
Also people in my class were going ape when I said communism and anarchism are the same. As you can see I have some work cut out for me.
Thank you comrades.

Ah, the hours of my independent study in AP Economics that I've wasted looking over the IWW site.
In my defense, I was tired of learning about capitalist economics every day. The Wobblies kick ass.

Here is the link to my online study guide for the book I am reading in APUSH. It might have some information, I don't know. Kind of interesting, I suppose you're following a schedule to keep you on track for the AP Exam as well?

You are talking about the IWW- Industrial Workers of the World or are you talking about World War I. Cause the link ToT gave was for Wolrd War 1 and the one the guy who posted second was for the Workers of the World.

Haha, sorry I should be more clear....I am talking about the Union.
But WWI the war is still very interesting.
And yes sir my class is just on that chapter...we might be a little bit behind.

Here, I found this
http://www.reuther.wayne.edu/exhibits/iww.html
it looked decent. Also google Joe Hill and I think there was a PBS special on him.
There are also two books I know of: "We Shall Be All" by Dubofsky and "The Wobblies" by Renshaw.
