Question

The Green Corn Rebellion was associated with which political party in Oklahoma? A. The Wobblies B. The United Farm Workers Union C. The Democratic Party D. The Socialist Party

Answer 1

Answer:

D. The Socialist Party.

Explanation:

The Green Corn Rebellion was a revolt from the tenant-farmers in the state of Oklahoma during the early 20th century. It was a result of the farmers' long-standing displeasure/ discontent with the local landowners, authorities both local and state level, and wealthy businessmen.

The revolution was short-lived, ending with the death of three people. The revolt was primarily a result of the growing dissent of the tenants towards the wealthy landowners, businessmen, and authorities for the increasing land consolidation. This led to these tenant-farmers suffering badly, who comprise more than half of the farmer community in the state. Organized by the Socialist Party who had a large following and support, the failure of the rebellion led to the party getting discredited.
