Las Gorras Blancas was a group of people. Thy fought against the ideology that fueled the commercial and industrial change that was going through New Mexico. They did this by symbolically cutting down fences, burning barns and haystacks, setting free cattle and horses, and once they also set thousands of railroad ties afire when the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe railroads refused to raise the low wages they were paying their workers.
