"“thousands of women streamed through the streets of the Lower East Side,” Hyman writes, “breaking into butcher shops, flinging meat into the streets, and declaring a boycott.”" Sounds like a little more than a boycott. It also says the ly continually assaulted butcher shop patrons and smashed windows. The article also ends saying that the price was originally 12¢, went to 18¢, the boycot happened and it went to 14¢, then the boycott ended and the price went back up. So it wasn't even successful?
