The 1919 Fremantle Wharf riot was a riot which was also known as the ''Battle of the Barricades''.〔() references to the Battle of the Barricades〕 It arose out of a stevedores' strike in Fremantle, Western Australia in 1919. The strike was called by the Waterside Workers' Federation (WWF) over the use of National Waterside Workers Union (NWWU) workers to unload the quarantined ship ''Dimboola'', and escalated into fatal violence when WWF workers and supporters attempted to prevent NWWU members from carrying out the work. == Background == In 1917, the Lumpers Union refused to load ships that they believed were destined to take supplies to Germany, then an enemy nation. This belief was denied by the government of the day (but was however later proven to be correct), and in response the shipowners and government brought in strike-breakers under the National Waterside Workers Union banner. This was intended to be only for the job at hand, but the NWWU labour continued to be employed after the immediate need, and despite their willingness the WWF workers were prevented from returning to work for some time.〔
