The Bisbee Deportation was a dark period in Arizona's labor history: In 1917, the town of Bisbee was the site of a large-scale labor strike by copper miners. The strike was broken up by vigilantes who rounded up more than a thousand strikers, put them on trains, and sent them out of town. Many of the strikers were forced to walk back to Bisbee, and some were beaten and abused along the way.
