Reformers
4. There are two parts to this question: Working Conditions and Labor Unions who tried to fix those conditions. (This is not the same question as number 3. This question is about workers and the workplace, while #3 is about living in the city.)
a. What were problems that workers experienced because of industrialization? Use specific examples of conditions including writings from Muckrakers, strikes, and reasons for strikes instead of simply saying conditions were bad.
b. Compare the Knights of Labor to the American Federation of Labor, particularly the way that they tried to resolve these problems. Using the “Test Strikes,” why did the AFL survive until today and the Knights no longer exist?
