Answer:
Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world."
—Hymn sung at the completion of the Battle Monument Concord, July 4, 1837
The claim in Emerson's line is expansive. Can it be true that the shot was heard round the world—when there were no satellites, no television, no radio, no telephone? Let us see.

To give the reader an idea of the complicated work required for the garment's worker's strike.
Explanation:
This passage is quite complicated. That is because the needs of the strike organizers were complicated as well. First, the speakers had to be found to report the progress of the strike back to the workers. Then, a fund would also have to be raised for strikers so they can access help with legal and personal problems. It is said that publicity(attention) was also a vital need for the strikers. They obviously needed the community's attention to make a difference, but this is dangerous because the strikers were targeted and so were the workers who requested the strike. Photos and eyewitness accounts of the workers on the boundary, in other words, the picket lines, were harrassed because the police obviously didn't approve of the strikers. Not only was the work of a striker complicated, but it was also dangerous.
