The Colorado Coalfield War was a major labor uprising in the Southern and Central Colorado Front Range between September 1913 and December 1914. Striking began in late summer 1913, organized by the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) against the Rockefeller-owned Colorado Fuel and Iron (CF&I) after years of deadly working conditions and low pay. The strike was marred by targeted and indiscriminate attacks from both strikers and individuals hired by CF&I to defend its property. Fighting was focused in the southern coal-mining counties of Las Animas and Huerfano, where the Colorado and Southern railroad passed through Trinidad and Walsenburg. It followed the 1912 Northern Colorado Coalfield Strikes.

  • La vaga de Colorado de 1913 fou un aixecament dels miners de carbó de la regió de Colorado que acabà amb enfrontaments violents amb l'exèrcit. Es considera la vaga amb més morts de la història dels Estats Units, fins al punt que també se l'ha anomenat "guerra del carbó de Colorado". (ca)
