On this day, 29 January 1912, a striking textile worker, Anna LoPizzo was killed by police when they tried to break up a picket line during the “Bread and Roses” strike in New England. Shamelessly, the police then arrested two leading organisers of the radical Industrial Workers of the World union as "accessories to murder" despite them being 3 miles away at the time and held them for eight months without bail or trial. The women strikers held out and won some weeks later.
