Eugene V. Debs One-Page Handout (Portraits in US History)

7/31/2024

I have produced a one-page handout summarizing the accomplishments of Eugene V. Debs, who was a labor union organizer, a perennial presidential candidate, and an antiwar activist. Debs led the Pullman Strike, which was one of the most impactful strikes during the Gilded Age. He served six months in jail for his involvement in the strike (which the federal government deemed illegal because it interfered with the delivery of the mail). His experience in jail led to Debs becoming a socialist. Between 1904 and 1920, Debs ran four times as the Socialist Party's candidate for president. He was arrested in 1918 for encouraging young men to resist the draft during World War I. Although Debs had been given a ten-year sentence, President Warren G. Harding commuted his sentence in 1921.
