The Kings of Labor differed from previous labor organizations in that it opened membership to unskilled workers, women, and minorities.

The origins of the Knights of Labor are quite mysterious. It began as a secret society in the city of Philadelphia in 1869. It became an important organization after the railroad strike of 1877. Terence V. Powderly was the leader of the organization since 1879 and those were their best years. During that time, the organization fought for better conditions for workers such as the 8-hour a day of work, equal pay for the work done, and the elimination of child labor.
