A Peaceful March on Washington

from Conservative Historian · host Bel Aves

Send us Fan MailIn 1894 Jacob S. Coxey led a march on Washington. Coxey wanted to compel the national government to provide unemployed workers with jobs, and do so in a peaceful manner. This was the first time that such a march had been conducted as most protests of this type was aimed at local governments. Additionally, to ensure a peaceful protest, Coxey dressed his own 17 year old daughter as the Goddess of Peace. Though initially unsuccessful, many of Coxey’s goals were later enacted. Contrast this with the protest on January 6, 2021. Learn more in this podcast.
