Bloody Sunday - A Watershed Moment

Bloody sunday invited the whole empire to join an aggrieved re appraisal of the czarist regime. The response from the empress alexandra was even more obtuse. Meanwhile, back in saint petersburg, all those workers,. who, let me just check, ye are in fact, a bunch of russians, were reeling from bloody sunday but not at all broken. Because one thing bloody sunday did not do is end the workers strike. So the workers woke up on monday morning and still refused to do their jobs. And now they were joined by even more workers, people who had remained on the job thus far now quit in angry solidarity.
