The Ludlow Massacre ended the day it started -- April 20, 1914, a Monday. But the backlash continued until May 1. The violence didn't end until the National Guard had been routed and replaced by the U.S. Army. At that point, the striking coal miners and their supporters ended their campaign of retribution. The strike within which the violence occurred began in September 1913 and ended in December 1914, though by then the strike had been effectively lost and production from the mines had returned to near pre-strike levels.

The ludlow massacre refers to the violent deaths of 19 people during an attack by the Colorado national guard on a tent colony of 1,200 striking coal miners and their families at Ludlow, Colorado on April 20, 1914. The deaths occurred after a daylong fight between strikers and the Guard. Two women and eleven children were asphyxiated and burned to death. Three union leaders and two strikers were killed by gunfire, along with one child, one passerby, and one National Guardsman. In response, the miners armed themselves and attacked dozens of mines, destroying property and engaging in several skirmishes with the Colorado National Guard.
