The KoL was an organization founded by Uriah Stephens in 1869. It accepted skilled and unskilled workers, women, and people of any race, unlike many other labor unions. They fought for eight-hour workdays and equal pay for women.

The AFL was a labor union that only allowed skilled workers to enter, so no women or people of other races. It was founded by Samuel Gompers in 1881, and it focused on getting better working conditions for the working class. They used collective bargaining to gain higher wages and shorter workdays.

Explain the meaning of the phrase “strong by nature” and how it relates to the Jamestown settlement.
Ghella [55]

Answer:

am now grown old and must soon die, and the succession must descend in order, to my brothers, Opitchapam, Opechancanough, and Kekataugh, and then to my two sisters, and their two daughters.

I wish their experience was equal to mine, and that your love to us might not be less than ours to you. Why should you take by force that from us which you can have by love? Why should you destroy us who have provided you with food? What can you get by war? We can hide our provisions and fly into the woods. And then you must consequently famish by wrongdoing your friends.

What is the cause of your jealousy? You see us unarmed and willing to supply your wants if you come in a friendly manner; not with swords and guns as to invade an enemy. I am not so simple as not to know that it is better to eat good meat, lie well, and sleep quietly with my women and children; to laugh and be merry with the English, and, being their friend, to have copper, hatchets, and whatever else I want, than to fly from all, to lie cold in the woods, feed upon acorns, roots and such trash, and to be so hunted that I cannot rest, eat, or sleep. In such circumstances, my men must watch, and if a twig should but break, all would cry out, "Here comes Captain Smith." And so, in this miserable manner to end my miserable life. And, Captain Smith, this might soon be your fate too through your rashness and advisedness.

I, therefore, exhort you to peaceable councils, and above all I insist that the guns and swords, the cause of all our jealousy and uneasiness, be removed and sent away.
