A Walk in a Cemetery Conjures Stories from Saylesville


ID : 1854   

« back to classes page
ClassGraphic In 1934, Rhode Islanders were at war—with each other. On top of the pressures and pains of the Great Depression, the 1934 General Textile Strike had further increased tensions in the state. During an especially violent confrontation, the strikers lost four of their own; two of those fatalities occurred during the Saylesville Massacre. This tour, off-site at the Moshassuck Cemetery in the Blackstone Valley area of Rhode Island, will consider the lasting legacy of the strike as well as this moment of crisis.
