COMBINE KNIGHTS QUESTIONS
// question: 11404421  name: The Knights of Labor sought equal pay for women.
::The Knights of Labor sought equal pay for women.::[html]<div style\="font-family\: 'arial'; font-size\: 11pt; color\: \#000000; font-weight\: normal;">The Knights of Labor <span style\="font-family\: 'arial'; font-size\: 12pt;">sought equal pay for women.</span></div>{TRUE}

Unlike the more conservative and traditional American Federation of Labor, the Knights of Labor were unusual in that they admitted unskilled workers, women, and blacks.  In fact, the Knights sought equal pay for women.  Unfortunately they could not overcome all of their prejudices.  Chinese were not welcome to join the union, and their radicalism during strikes, especially when violence occurred, let to a rapid decline in their membership numbers and eventually ended in their collapse.
