Francisco Anthony "Frank" Lorenzo (born May 19, 1940) is an American businessman and philanthropist.
 He is most famous for his leadership of Texas International Airlines and its successor holding company Texas Air Corporation between 1972 and 1990, through which he formed or acquired a number of major U.S. airlines including Continental Airlines, Eastern Air Lines, Frontier Airlines, New York Air and People Express Airlines.
Charlie Bryan
Charlie Bryan (11 December 1933 - 2 November 2013) was the head of the International Association of Machinists union in the southeast United States, during the mid to late 1980s.
 He led machinists to strike against Eastern Air Lines and Frank Lorenzo in 1989.
1980 New York City transit strike
The 1980 New York City transit strike in New York City (often referred to as the Subway strike) was the first work stoppage at the New York City Transit Authority (a subsidiary of the New York MTA) since 1966.
 34,000 members of Transport Workers Union Local 100 walked off their jobs on April 1, 1980, in a strike with the goal of increasing the wage for contracted workers.
 All subway and bus lines in The Five Boroughs were brought to a complete standstill for ten days, during which the city lost an approximated $2 million a day in taxes and another $1 million a day in overtime expenses for city employees.
 Companies in the private sector lost approximately $100 million per day, and job absenteeism was estimated to be between 15 and 20 percent.
 The strike was resolved on April 11, with the TWU winning a 9% raise in the first year and 8% in the second year, along with a cost-of-living adjustment. 1927 Indiana bituminous strike
The 1927 Indiana bituminous strike was a strike by members of the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) against local bituminous coal companies.
 Although the struggle raged throughout most of the nation's coal fields, its most serious impact was in western Pennsylvania, including Indiana County.
 The strike began on April 1, 1927, when almost 200,000 coal miners struck the coal mining companies operating in the Central Competitive Field, after the two sides (management and labor) could not reach an agreement on pay rates.
 The UMWA was attempting to retain pay raises gained in the contracts it had negotiated in 1922 and 1924, while management, stating that it was under economic pressure from competition with the West Virginia coal mines, was seeking wage reductions.
 The strike proved to be a disaster for the union, as by 1929, there were only 84,000 paying members of the union, down from 400,000 which belonged to the union in 1920. Stari Trg mine
The Stari Trg mine (Serbian: Рудник Стари Трг, "Rudnik Stari Trg") is one of the largest lead and zinc mines in Kosovo.
 The mine is located in Leposavić.
 The mine has reserves amounting to 0.432 million tonnes of ore grading 5.1% lead, 2.21% zinc and 80.5gr/t silver thus resulting 22,000 tonnes of lead, 9,600 tonnes of zinc and 35 tonnes of silver.
 The 1989 Kosovo miners' strike took place and ended in the mine, and spread to the entire Kosovo as a general strike.
 In order to stop the strike, turning into an open unrest, the yugoslav government decided to impose martial law in the region. 2016–17 video game voice actor strike
The 2016-17 video game voice actor strike was a strike started on October 21, 2016, by the Screen Actors Guild‐American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) union against 11 American video game developers and publishers (Activision Publishing, Inc.; Blindlight, LLC; Corps of Discovery Films; Disney Character Voices, Inc.; Electronic Arts Productions, Inc.; Formosa Interactive, LLC; Insomniac Games, Inc.; Interactive Associates, Inc.; Take 2 Interactive Software; VoiceWorks Productions, Inc.; and WB Games, Inc) over failed contract renegotiation terms that had been in discussion since February 2015.
 Principally, the union sought to have actors and voice and motion capture artists that contribute to video games be better compensated with residuals based on video game sales atop their existing recording payments, while the industry companies asserted that the industry as a whole eschews the use of residuals, and by giving the actors these, they would trivialize the efforts of the programmers and artists that are most responsible for the development of the games.
 In exchange, the companies had offered a fixed increase in rates and a sliding-scale upfront bonus for multiple recording sessions, which the union had rejected.
 Other issues highlighted by the strike action include better transparency in what roles and conditions actors would perform, more safety precautions and oversight to avoid vocal stress for certain roles, and better safety assurances for actors while on set. 2013 Hong Kong dock strike
The 2013 Hong Kong dock strike was a 40-day labour strike at the Kwai Tsing Container Terminal.
 It was called by the Union of Hong Kong Dockers (UHKD), an affiliate of the Hong Kong Confederation of Trade Unions (HKCTU) on 28 March 2013, against contracting companies to whom workforce management had been out-sourced by the Hongkong International Terminals Ltd. (HIT), subsidiary of Hutchison Port Holdings Trust (HPHT), which is in turn owned by Hutchison Whampoa Ltd (HWL), flagship company of Li Ka-shing, Hong Kong's richest man.
 The strike workers demanded better pay and working conditions.
 The strike ended on 6 May 2013 when the strikers accepted the offer of 9.8% pay rise.
 It was the longest running industrial action in Hong Kong in years.
 Public support and media attention on the strike were unprecedented in the city's history.
 Some observers marked this as the rejuvenation of political engagement. 1877 St. Louis general strike
Generally accepted as the first general strike in the United States, the 1877 St. Louis general strike grew out of the Great Railroad Strike of 1877.
 The general strike was largely organized by the Knights of Labor and the Marxist-leaning Workingmen's Party, the main radical political party of the era.
 When the railroad strike reached East St. Louis, Illinois in July 1877, the St. Louis Workingman's Party led a group of approximately 500 people across the river in an act of solidarity with the nearly 1,000 workers on strike.
 The party transformed, through speeches and organization, an initial strike among railroad workers into a strike by thousands of workers in several industries for the eight-hour day and a ban on child labor.
 One speaker was noted to say, At another large rally a black man spoke for those who worked on the steamboats and levees.
 He asked, "Will you stand to us regardless of color?"
 The crowd shouted back, "We will!" Little Steel strike
The Little Steel strike was a 1937 labor strike by the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) and its branch the Steel Workers Organizing Committee (SWOC), against a number of smaller steel producing companies, principally Republic Steel, Inland Steel, and Youngstown Sheet and Tube Company.
 The strike affected a total of thirty different mills belonging to the three companies, which employed 80,000 workers.
 The strike, which was one of the most violent labor disputes of the 1930s, ended without the strikers achieving their principal goal, recognition by the companies of the union as the bargaining agent for the workers. West Virginia coal wars
The West Virginia coal wars (1912–21), also known as the mine wars, arose out of a dispute between coal companies and miners.
 The first workers strike, in West Virginia, was the Cabin Creek and Paint Creek strike of 1912-1913.
 With help from Mary "Mother" Jones, an important figure in unionizing the mine workers, the miners demanded better pay, better work conditions, the right to trade where they pleased (ending the practice of forcing miners to buy from company-owned stores), and recognition of the United Mine Workers (UMW).
 The mining companies, however, refused to meet the demands of the workers and instead hired Baldwin-Felts Agents, equipped with high-powered rifles, to guard the mines, but more important to be strikebreakers.
 After the Agents arrived, the miners either moved out or were evicted from the houses they had been renting from the coal companies, moving into coal camps that were being supported by the Union.
 Approximately 35,000 people lived in these coal camps.
 It wasn't until a month after the strike began that it became hostile with the arrival of the Baldwin-Felts Agents who provoked the miners.
 The union began supplying miners with weapons: 6 machine guns, 1,000 high-powered rifles, and 50,000 rounds of ammunition.
