Haymarket Square Riot
The Homestead Strike of 1892 significantly weakened the Knights of Labor due to its violent nature and the subsequent negative public perception of labor unions. The strike, which involved a bitter conflict between steelworkers and the Carnegie Steel Company, led to a violent confrontation that resulted in deaths and injuries. This incident highlighted the challenges of organizing skilled and unskilled laborers under the Knights' umbrella and contributed to a decline in membership and influence. The aftermath also shifted public sentiment against labor movements, further diminishing the Knights' power.

One incident of importance in May of 1915 was the sinking of the passenger ship"Lusitania" off the coast of Britain by a German U-boat(submarine). This incident enraged the American public and gave support to the argument that the U.S. should enter WWI against Germany and its' allies. Which we did in 1917.
Media coverage of the Freedom Riders significantly influenced public perception by bringing national attention to the civil rights movement and the violent backlash faced by the activists. Graphic images and reports of brutality against the riders exposed the harsh realities of segregation and racism in the South, evoking outrage and empathy from viewers across the country. This visibility helped garner widespread support for civil rights initiatives and increased pressure on government officials to address racial injustices. Ultimately, the coverage played a crucial role in shaping public opinion and advancing the movement for equality.
One significant event that caused public outrage in the U.S. was the killing of George Floyd by a police officer in Minneapolis in May 2020. The incident was captured on video and showed Floyd pleading for his life, which sparked nationwide protests against police brutality and systemic racism. The public outcry led to widespread demonstrations, calls for police reform, and a renewed focus on social justice issues. The Black Lives Matter movement gained significant momentum as a result of this tragedy.

Yes, non-violent political tactics can be highly effective against governments and their actions. Strategies such as protests, civil disobedience, and grassroots organizing can mobilize public support, raise awareness, and pressure authorities to change policies. Historical examples, like the Civil Rights Movement in the U.S. and India's independence movement, demonstrate that non-violent resistance can lead to significant political and social change. Additionally, such tactics often garner greater legitimacy and moral authority, making it harder for governments to justify repression.
