On this day, 15 November 1922, between 300 and 1000 people were massacred by the state during a general strike in Guayaquil, Ecuador. Power company and trolley workers had walked out on strike in protest at worsening economic conditions, and were joined by almost all other workers in the city. Strikers and their families assembled for a peaceful rally on 15 November when, completely unprovoked, the armed forces and police opened fire on the crowd, killing hundreds.
