Irene Bedard as Pocahontas: Irene Bedard is most commonly known for her role as the voice of Pocahontas in the 1995 animated film. Irene has played the character of Native Americans in many other films. She can be seen in the films; “Into the West,” “Tree of Life” and “Smoke Signals.” She is an award-winning actress, whose voice is heard by millions.

It referenced the Knights of Labor numerous times throughout the article, and touched on many different issues and events involving the organization. First it mentioned the strike that took place in Ft. Worth Texas by all the members of the Knights of Labor on the Missouri Pacific, Texas and Pacific and International and Great Northern. This strike nearly blockaded Texas and Pacific Yards, and twenty one locomotives and 400 freight cars were side tracked...the Knights claimed that the trains will not get past Wetherford West or Dallas East, and the Missouri Pacific was completely blocked.

The article goes on to talk about strikes associated with the Knights of Labor in other to...
