À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode we're talking about the Bread and Roses or the Singing Strike of 1912, when an insanely diverse and incredibly organized group of mill workers, many of them women, working in the industrial town of Lawrence, MA went on a successful strike to protest a wage cut. This strike was another dramatic one, with a sabotage plot orchestrated by the mill owners and women strikers duking it out with cops. Even though several strikers died over the course of the strike, their sacrifice wasn't in vain, with eventual pay raises and changes to working conditions being seen not just in Lawrence but across all of New England. Let's get into it!
