The Mad Hatters and Their Major US Supreme Court Case
Manage episode 318084465 series 3006693
It was one of the most explosive labor issues of the early 1900s – and it involved the United Hatters Union. That union represented the workers who created the hats that put Danbury, Connecticut on the international map at the time. Were unions monopolizing workers – and, could they therefore be sued under the new Sherman Anti-Trust Act? The case went all the way to the US Supreme Court.
