I chose the Textile Mill Strike of 1934; This strike particularly intrigued me because the Unions and labor laws were in their infancy stage and made a lot of mistakes along the way. This strike involved politicians, laws, and even touched the President at the time personally. This strike also affected the Northeastern part of the United States which is where we reside. First let us start with a…

I do not think that the English Textile factories were a good place for the health of the working class, because it was not a safe environment, there were a lot of little kids working machines, the workers of all ages worked for very long periods of time a day (5 am to like 10+pm), and also they got beaten at the factories. The English Textile factories were horrible with the health of their workers, kids of the age of 5 and older were working and they would hurt themselves or even others on…

To my great surprise, even high-end brands such as Michael Kors and Nine West seemed to do the same thing!The pattern of cheap…

“I am at work in a spinning room tending four sides of warp” (Doc. 1). These sides of warp, (in the textile industry), would in many cases, create many physical ailments relating to the lung and eyes, mainly from the fact that almost all textile machinery would create lint and dust that would get into the face and eyes, and in most cases inhaled through the throat causing lung problems.
