From the Gilded Age to the 1920s, employers and allies used terrorism to control workplaces and communities. Our colleagues at the Heartland Labor Forum radio show talk to Chad Pearson, author of Capital’s Terrorists: Klansmen, Lawmen & Employers
to find out how terrorism disempowered the working class and its unions.
On this week’s Labor History in Two: AFL leaders jailed for boycotting; Wal-Mart pays up for wage theft.
