The Knights of labor was the largest and one of the most important American labor organizations of the 1880s. It was founded on the 28th day of December in year 1869 by Uriah Stephens. They promoted the producers ethic of republicanism and demanded the eight-hour day, rejected socialism and anarchism and encouraged the social and cultural uplift of the workingman. In 1880, the organization reached 28,000 members and even gained more members to 100,000 in 1884. But in 1893, the knights of labor declines its membership because of public pressure, power vested in reformist factions, and employers' unwillingness to arbitrate.

Answer: If I had to keep only three amendments I would keep the 1st, 15th, and 19th amendments. I would keep the first amendment because it grants people the right to religious freedom, freedom of speech, and the right to peacefully assemble. Those rights are very important because they give people freedom to express themselves. I would keep the 15th amendment, because it grants people the right to vote in US election no matter their race, color, ect... The last amendment I would keep is the 19th amendment, this amendment grants women the right to vote in US elections. I want to keep this amendment, because women deserve the right to vote, and to be treated as equals.
The two amendments I would cancel are the 16th amendment, and the 18th amendment. I cancel the 16th amendment because I do not feel that the government should get to take from my money. I would cancel the 18th amendment, because I do not think that it is important enough to be in the Us constitution.
Explanation: I had some trouble on the cancel part of this so look it over and see if you want to use it, but other than that I hope this helped :)
