14 jul 1877 ano - The Great Railroad Strike

Descrição:

The Great Railroad Strike was a nationwide affair. At the time there were no labor unions and the strike was an unorganized mess.

While the companies won the strike, they did slightly improve the workers condition because of the threat of a Marxist revolution.
