Two U.S. labor conflicts that illuminate the conversion of workplace grievances into broader political conflict. They are useful for distinguishing symbolic labor solidarity from actual output disruption, and for examining courts, policing, federal intervention, public legitimacy, and the institutional limits of industrial action. This profile treats organization, coercion, repression, legitimacy, state response, and outcome as historical variables—not moral shorthand.

Coverage class: Strike · boycott · labor organizing · state intervention. BuiltToResist does not use violent/nonviolent, armed/unarmed, extremist, insurgent, or legal designation as a credibility or inclusion test. Those fields describe what actors did and how authorities classified them; they do not decide whether the case belongs in the research corpus.
This profile is synthesized from the 2026 Revolutionary Knowledge expansion corpus. Campaign-cycle descriptions are historical research snapshots, not recruitment or tactical guidance. Current legal or political status should be reverified before present-tense reuse.
