Rose spoke up for better conditions, and organized 20,000 women to walk out, leaving factories all over the city empty and still. Following the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire in 1911, Rose's speech at the Metropolitan Opera House galvanized support for better working conditions. The International Ladies Garment Workers Union was born.\nIncludes historical photos and bibliography, plus a note to families about tikkun olam, repairing the world, a core element of Jewish tradition.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1681156172\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1681156172.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Abeille, Giovanni|Berne, Emma Carlson\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
