The plight of women in the workplace is vividly illustrated in this unit with primary sources focusing on the reactions of women to the conditions imposed upon them by industrialization, and the attempts made by them to improve conditions through strikes, unionization, and the law, and why those attempts failed. Thought-provoking photographs and documents aid in the understanding of the struggle that ensued and that, in many ways, is still being fought today.
