23 Aug 1886 Jahr - Haymarket Square Riot

Beschreibung:

100,000 workers rioted in Chicago. After the police fired into the crowd, the workers met and rallied in Haymarket Square to protest police brutality. A bomb exploded, killing or injuring many of the police. The Chicago workers and the man who set the bomb were immigrants, so the incident promoted anit-immigrant feelings.
