Description

The Ordeal of the Jungle boldly revises previous scholarship regarding Chicago's labor movement in the World war I era.

It examines the failures of the Chicago Federation of Labor to build a progressive, interracial organization.

Following failed strikes and a tumultuous time, the Chicago Race Riot of 1919 shattered the CFL's tenuous interracial alliance.
