1878 St. Croix Labor Riots : ウィキペディア英語版 | 1878 St. Croix Labor Riots The 1878 Labor Riot on St. Croix, also known as Fireburn was a labor riot on St. Croix started on October 1, 1878. Among the leaders were several women, who became known as "Queens of the Fireburn" ==Events Leading up to the Riot== In July 1848, the slaves of Danish West Indies staged a protest and gained their freedom. This freedom would be short-lived, as plantation owners quickly began devising new regulations. The now free laborers were forced, by law, to sign contracts which bound them and their families to the plantations on which they worked. By signing these contracts, the laborers became slaves again, in all but name.
