This Week in Business History for January 10th: The Truth, Myth, and Legacy of the Bread and Roses Strike (1912)
b'
In this edition of This Week in Business History, Kelly Barner tells the story of the Bread and Roses strike, or the Lawrence textile strike, that took place in Massachusetts in 1912. It was a turning point in the labor movement, a moment that showed the power workers can yield if they are willing to align (despite their personal differences) and quickly spun off a number of legends or myths that romanticized the workers, the union, and their shared cause.
