German Workers' Association

The German Workers' Association (Deutscher Arbeiterverein) was founded in the mid-19th century as a social and political organization for German workers, primarily in the United States. It aimed to support workers' rights, promote social welfare, and advocate for better working conditions. The association often served as a cultural hub, fostering a sense of community and identity among German immigrants. It played a role in labor movements, encouraging collective action and solidarity among workers, and contributed to the broader labor rights discourse in the United States during its time.
