30 apr 1894 anni - Coxey's Army

Descrizione:

Coxey's Army was a protest march in 1894 organized by businessman Jacob Coxey, who led a group of unemployed men from Ohio to Washington, D.C., to demand a federal government public works program to create jobs during the severe economic depression. The march highlighted the desperation caused by the Panic of 1893 and brought attention to the issue of unemployment, although it failed to persuade Congress to act on any major relief measures at that time.
