1 janv. 1890 - American Federation of Labor Founded
Description:
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.Ajouté au bande de temps:
