What effect do you think the Homestead and Pullman strikes had on American culture and society in this time period?

History
1 answer:
shusha [124]4 years ago
3 0

The aftermath of the Homestead strike resulted in Carnegie Steel and co. cutting wages down by a fifth, its owner refusing to deal with the steel workers union and increasing working hours from 8 hours a day to 12 hours. The continuous strikes and rioting left lots damaged infrastructure and the eventual arrival of the military led to the surrender of the cause.

The result of the Pullman strike left the national railroad system damaged and half functioning. It created a dispute between the American Railroad Union and the government due to the collapsing of the post service. The leader of the Union, Eugene V. Debs, was arrested. After military intervention due to continuous interefering with trains that carried mail cars, the strike collapsed.

In an effort to create a better climate for workes and organzied labor after the strikes, president Grover Cleveland designated Labor Day as a federal holiday.

True or false the in industrialization contributed to poor working conditions and polluted air and water?
Ira Lisetskai [31]
<span>
This statement is definitely TRUE, as the biggest negative effect of the industrialization was the impact on the environment.  Many companies that supported industrialization did not push their weight to pay damages for the environmental harm which was caused because of their factories and so on. And after all, It led to extinction of species and spread of pollution.

Anne's wish to be a teenager is an example of dramatic irony. Explain what is ironic about her wishes. Make sure to use A.C.E (A
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Hi. Ok, so from what I have learned about it and seen from her book is that she wishes to be more mature but when she actually is and is expected to act that way, she repeatedly writes about it and complains. Basically, this would mean that instead of following her parents wish to be mature or to act like a lady(teenager) she does the opposite and realizes what this comes with. Then she doesn't like it as much as she did before she is a teenager despite saying how much she wanted to be. As for evidence, I don't know off of my head, but know her diaries mention it several times. For the explanation, Anne explains her desire to be so much but then starts misbehaving a bit and that comes with facing her family and friends opinions which she doesn't like. Hope this helps you out as a basic explanation.
