Triangle Congress

The Triangle Congress was an influential political group in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, mainly representing the interests of farmers, laborers, and rural communities in the southern United States. It aimed to promote cooperative economic efforts, political activism, and social reforms to challenge economic inequalities and political corruption. By organizing around shared regional and economic concerns, it sought to give a stronger voice to marginalized groups and influence policy decisions that affected their livelihoods. The Triangle Congress played a role in shaping regional political movements advocating for workers’ rights and social justice during that period.
