Since 1934, San Francisco union members have called July 5 “Bloody Thursday.” That day, police killed two union members and injured a hundred as longshore and maritime unions struggled to resist the Industrial Association, which had long prided itself on maintaining a union-free environment in San Francisco’s major industries. This course will review events leading up to July 5 and those that followed, including a four-day general strike that shut own nearly all economic activity in the city.
