Yesterday was the 97th anniversary of the Triangle Factory Fire. I didn’t have a chance to blog yesterday, but would recommend this post by Brownfemipower, and the Triangle Factory website she linked to (and I linked to here). They have lots of interesting testimonies from factory workers, and other cool stuff. Well, ‘cool’ is possibly the wrong word since they’re commemorating the death of 150 people.

It might be a good time also to think of the working conditions of immigrant workers today, which aren’t that much better (if at all).
