Below are links to YouTube videos that summarize each of the strikes that we talked about in class. Do not take notes on these videos. Watch these videos only to help you to better understand each of the strikes.
The Haymarket Riot of 1886
I apologize that this video is choppy and hard to understand initially, but it is a good video which will help you understand the outcome of the Haymarket Riot.
Also click this link for more information about The Haymarket Riot
The Homestead Strike of 1892
This is a GREAT video which completely summarizes the labor strike.
The Pullman Strike of 1894
This video briefly addresses the Pullman Strike. Hopefully this video will be more relevant to you because it addresses the Pullman Strike's influence on Labor Day! I figured this would be appropriate since we're quickly approaching Labor Day!!
