The Little Falls Textile Strike

We commemorate Labor Day with the author of Women, Immigrants, and the Working-Class Battle in Little Falls, New York: The Textile Strike of 1912-1913. Driven primarily by immigrant women and unskilled workers, the strike is recognized as a watershed moment in the American Labor Movement. J.N. Cheney is a local historian who focuses on the labor movement, radical politics, and community action in the Mohawk Valley.
