Homestead, 1892
Paper Topic
For this paper, you will assume a role as a community leader in Homestead in 1892. Your task is to write a 5-page documented essay advising the workers in your community either to strike or to keep working. This is a persuasive essay and you are attempting to persuade workers to adopt a particular course of action.
Some factors to consider as you develop your argument:
What were the working and living conditions of the mass of unskilled workers in the town?
How was the industry-changing and how did these changes affect workers?
What were the major issues at stake in the strike?
Were the interests of Carnegie and his workers necessarily at odds? Or did they have shared interests?
How successful had similar strikes been? What role had government played in similar strikes?
What were the risks of advocating a strike?
What role did business personalities play in determining your response?
