If you want to learn about an exciting chronicle, triumph and tragedy, and breaking barriers, then you are in the right place! This narrative takes place in the grimy streets of the populous state of New York. The story of the newsboys is a thrilling "David and Goliath" style tale about lowly newsboys (or "newsies" as they were sometimes called) taking a stand against newspaper moguls.
This webpage is dedicated to this strike and its effects on the state of NY and the rest of the U.S.A. (Nasaw, David. “Read All about It: The Story of the Newsies' Two-Week Strike against Publishers Pulitzer, Hearst.” )
