  • Anna LoPizzo was an Italian immigrant striker killed during the Lawrence Textile Strike (also known as the Bread and Roses Strike), considered one of the most significant struggles in U.S. labor history. Eugene Debs said of the strike, "The Victory at Lawrence was the most decisive and far-reaching ever won by organized labor." Author Peter Carlson saw this strike conducted by the militant Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) as a turning point. He wrote, "Wary of [a war with the anti-capitalist IWW], some mill owners swallowed their hatred of unions and actually invited the AFL to organize their workers. Anna LoPizzo's death was significant to both sides in the struggle. Wrote Bruce Watson in his epic Bread and Roses: Mills, Migrants, and the Struggle for the American Dream, "If America had a Tomb of the Unknown Immigrant paying tribute to the millions of immigrants known only to God and distant cousins compiling family trees, Anna LoPizzo would be a prime candidate to lie in it."

  • Anna LoPizzo (Buccheri, 26 novembre 1878 – Lawrence, 29 gennaio 1912) è stata una sindacalista italiana immigrata (nome completo anagrafico: Anna Maria Lo Pizzo), uccisa a 34 anni dalla polizia durante lo sciopero del pane e delle rose nel settore del tessile a Lawrence, Massachusetts, considerata una delle lotte più significative nella storia del lavoro negli Stati Uniti. Eugene Debs disse dello sciopero: "La vittoria di Lawrence fu la più decisiva e di vasta portata mai conquistata dal lavoro organizzato". L'autore Peter Carlson ha visto questo sciopero condotto dai militanti del sindacato Industrial Workers of the World (IWW) come una svolta. Ha scritto: "Diffidando di [una guerra con l'anticapitalista IWW], alcuni proprietari dei mulini hanno ingoiato il loro odio per i sindacati e hanno quindi invitato l'AFL ad organizzare i loro lavoratori. La morte di Anna LoPizzo fu significativa per entrambe le parti nella lotta. Ha scritto Bruce Watson nel suo epico Pane e rose: Mulini, migranti e la lotta per il sogno americano, "Se l'America avesse una tomba dell'immigrante sconosciuto che renda omaggio ai milioni di immigrati conosciuti solo da Dio e da lontani cugini che compilavano alberi genealogici, Anna LoPizzo sarebbe la prima candidata a giacerci.
