22 September 1919-8 January 1920: The Steel Strike of 1919—Half the steel workers in the United Stats went on strike, encouraged by the Amalgamated Association of Iron & Steel Workers; violent clashes ensued; the federal government was paralyzed, but state & local governments allied with the steel trusts & the American Federation of Labor (A.F.L.) to undermine & eventually break the strike.
Lest we forget.
