...Ludlow Massacre, The strikers were mainly immigrants who were paid slave wages by the company They were forced to work 10–12 hour days and were not paid for work such as clearing the mines of rubble. The event marked a key milestone for America’s working class struggle to gain workplace rights, including the 8-hour work day, workplace health and safety measures, better housing, and the right to form a union, Under capitalism, workers do not receive the total value they create while at work The capitalist extracts surplus value from the workers' labor in order to form and increase his profits The greater the extraction of surplus value, the greater will be the profit To increase the rate of profit, the capitalist must exploit the worker through various means, including extending working hours, slashing wages, decreasing benefits, not investing in health and safety measures, and above all, discouraging workers from forming trade union and political organizations to fight for their collective economic and political rights, Workers can bear the oppression up to a certain point; but eventually they are forced to take action, The miners went on strike in September 1914 after their demands were not met. Over 13,000 miners and their families moved out of the poorly made houses into primitive tents on land loaned to the strikers by sympathetic ex-miners, Battle of Blair Mountain in 1921, when as many as 20,000 coal miners in southern West Virginia waged armed combat against a private army of men hired by the coal operators. The pitched battle lasted from August 25 to September 2, 1921, when US military forces deployed by President Warren Harding occupied the coalfields, disarming and arresting hundreds of miners under martial law, the Battle of Blair Mountain, part of the West Virginia “Mine Wars” of 1912-1921, proves that the working class has never won anything outside of unifying across all races and nationalities and waging the most determined struggle against the vile resistance of the employers and the state, ETC!!!
