DESCRIPTION:Labor Strikes & the California Railroads\n\nPlease reserve prior to the 
 event. Info: 415-357-1848\nPresentation by Gordon H. Chang and Laurence H. 
 Shoup.\n\nJoin us for presentations that focus on important labor strikes 
 that occurred during the building of the Transcontinental Railroad and 
 those that followed. Examples include the historic eight-day strike that 
 stopped construction of the Central Pacific Railroad in 1867 and the 1894 
 Pullman strike. California was the second most important center of this 
 nationwide strike, which saw armed workers take over sections of the 
 Southern Pacific line in the state. This was part of a giant struggle for 
 an industrial union in the nation’s most important industry.\n\nSponsored 
 by California Historical Society\n\nSee also:
