We had a great night listening to J.N. Cheney talk about the strikes in Little Falls and what the women had to deal with.

J.N. Cheney will talk about his book "Women, Immigrants, and the Working-Class Battle in Little Falls, New York". The Little Falls Textile Strike of 1912-1913 was a pivotal but long-neglected event in American labor history. This book offers a groundbreaking corrective, as it chronicles the dramatic struggle of immigrant women against powerful mill owners, brutal police repression, and a hostile press as they fought for their dignity and survival. Drawing on extensive archival research, this study resurrects a forgotten history and provides a pioneering theoretical framework for understanding class struggle, nativism, and labor organizing in the Progressive Era, restoring a vital local struggle to its national importance.
