The racist militia that killed 30 black farmers on strike and wounded hundreds in America

In the United States, the Louisiana racist militia killed 30 black farmers on strike and injured hundreds. In Thibodaux, 10,000 strikers, 90 per cent of them black, were protesting that they were unable to support their families at such low wages. Thibodaux became a refugee village that eventually brought together hundreds of strikers expelled from the plantations and their families.
