Turning Tides: Links In the Chain will discuss the American labor movement. The first episode, Combinations and Conspiracies, will cover the period from 1781 to 1878, in which the American labor movement grew in tandem with the burgeoning nation's industrial power, culminating in the Great Railroad Strike of 1877 and the violence surrounding it.
