MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History July 18, 1966: Start of the 6-day Hough Uprising in Cleveland, Ohio. 1,700 National Guards intervened. 4 African Americans died. 50 people were injured. City officials blamed black nationalists and communists, but the real causes were poverty and racism. Over 66,000 people, lived in Hough. 90% of them were black. The neighborhood suffered from racially segregated and inferior schools, lack of routine garbage collection, no street cleaning, and 20% of all housing units officially dilapidated, many owned by absentee white landlords. Meanwhile, the racially segregated police stoked racial tensions. 20% of Cleveland's major crimes were committed in Hough, even though it had only 7% of the city's population, and only 165 of Cleveland's 2,100 police officers were African American. In 1963-1964, a coalition of African American civil rights groups led a nine-month protest campaign against the poor-quality, racially segregated schools and racial discrimination against blacks by labor unions. The protests were Cleveland's first large, racial protests, and their failure to achieve significant progress sent the message that negotiation and legal action produced only limited results.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/uprising" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>uprising</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Riot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Riot</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/racism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>racism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackLivesMatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BlackLivesMatter</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/communism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>communism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>police</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/policebrutality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>policebrutality</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/acab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>acab</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>union</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/civilrights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>civilrights</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/cleveland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cleveland</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BlackMastadon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BlackMastadon</span></a></p>
