1 janv. 1834 - Lowell Mill Strike
Description:
Lowell textile factory workers go on strike when mill owners cut wages by 15% in response to a severe economic depression. The strike fails within days, but it set an important precedent. Later in 1836, workers successfully resisted a proposed rent hike by mill owners in response to the depression.Ajouté au bande de temps:
