Labor Wars of the Northwest

Synopsis

Discontent, radicalism, and violence permeated the U.S. Northwest in the early decades of the twentieth century. Tens of thousands of workers migrated for jobs in logging, mining, and fishing - where they found poverty-level wages, crushing hours, and dreadful conditions. The conflict becomes part of a decades-long struggle involving tragedies such as the Everett Massacre (1916), the Seattle General Strike (1919), and the Centralia Massacre (1919).
