This was a battle to unionize steel workers of Carnegie Steel Company in Pennsylvania. The Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers (AA) was an American labor union formed in 1876. It was a craft union representing skilled iron and steel workers. Carnegie was publicly in favor of the Unions but only publicly. He and his manager Henry Frick were bound to break the union. The Homestead was a setback to the union. The Pennsylvania State Militia was brought in to stop the uprising.
