1 Jan 1890 Jahr - American Federation of Labor Founded

Beschreibung:

Samuel Gompers founds the American Federation of Labor, a union of skilled craftsmen who advocated simple approaches to simple goals: bettery pay, less hours, better working conditions. This strategy worked very well, as he attracted substantial support from the government and the public. The AFL largely excluded anyone who wasn't a skilled white male worker, though there were exceptions.
