This is not a broken tornado sirin. This is a full on tornado warning sirin. The pattern is called an alternating wail. It has begun to be utilized for Two reaons.

Pictured is Herb Boyd, a former Detroit autoworker, member of the League of Revolutionary Black Workers and author of Black Detroit: A People’s History of Self-Determination. Here is what he said about our forthcoming book, Working Class History: Everyday Acts of Resistance & Rebellion.
“Working Class History is of enormous benefit, especially since it denotes events, organizations, and individuals on a particular day of the year. What a wonderful concept and it should be of special benefit for those interested in the struggles of working class people in their fight for freedom and justice.”
You can preorder the book, coming Nov this year, on our Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/workingclasshistory/working-class-history-the-bookhttps://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1545973072254504/?type=3

If you don't like Left Wing political thought and philosophy, all things related to horror, the supernatural, the grotesque, guns or the strange, then get the fuck out. I just warned you.
