Why this matters here
The U.S. Strike Commission’s 1895 report on the Pullman/ARU conflict documents how a local labor dispute became a national rail interruption when workers refused trains carrying Pullman cars. The World We Make Together reads that scale shift as interdependence made visible by interruption: shared action created leverage no individual worker had, revealing that trains had always depended on denied labor.
