The Kanawha strike [Paint Creek/Cabin Creek Strike, 1912-1913] greatly affected Chaplin. He not only reported on and wrote poems about it (“Paint Creek Miner,” and “Mine Guard”) but was part of the strike committee. He was once beaten unconscious as he traveled to deliver a speech for Mother Jones, who had been jailed. Chaplin witnessed an armored train opening fire on the striking miners’ shacks where women and children also slept. These were commonplace attacks on workers in an America that had not yet recognized the power and rights of organized labor.
