The Red Hue of Haymarket Square

In an America embroiled in the all-encompassing inequities of the Gilded Age, with industrialists making their riches while the workers fight for their freedoms, a teenager's vicious account of a Chicago riot comes to color the class tensions of the era.



In this short piece of historical fiction, an ode to peaceful demonstration comes crashing down as bodies tangle and lives are lost, and violence remains the only path to salvation.



Contains light gore. Enjoy.
