Labor action of African-American sharecroppers in Arkansas
The cotton pickers' strike of 1891 was a labor action of African-American sharecroppers in Lee County, Arkansas in September 1891. The strike led to open conflict between strikers and plantation owners, racially motivated violence, and both a sheriff's posse and a lynching party. One plantation manager, two non-striking workers, and some twelve strikers were killed during the incident.
