'La M. de la Corsets': c. 1832 lithograph showing a dressmaker or tailoress and client. The undergarments depicted include sleeve-plumpers.

1830s Thursday: Big sleeves, and even bigger dreams for women’s rights.

The growing vulnerability of working women in industrial society provoked a forceful response. In 1825 hundreds of them went out on strike against New York City clothing houses. In 1831 these same women organized themselves into a mass-membership United Tailoresses’ Society. At a time when journeymen were still devoting their political efforts to a defense of artisanal prerogatives in the master’s shop, these “tailoresses” (the appellation itself testified to an advanced degree of industrial consciousness, excluding as it did the more traditional dressmaking of the “sempstress”) already understood that in a capitalist economy no aspect of the work relationship remained non-negotiable. [...]

No one can help us but ourselves, Sarah Monroe, a leader of the United Tailoresses’ Society, declared. Tailoresses should consequently organize a trade union with a constitution, a plan of action, and a strike fund. Only then could we “come before the public in defense of our rights.” The Wollstonecraftian rhetoric was conscious. Lavinia Wright, the society’s secretary, argued that the tailoresses’ low wages and hard-pressed circumstances were a direct result of the way power was organized throughout society to ensure women’s subordination in all social relations.

— Michael Zakim, Ready-Made Democracy: A History of Men's Dress in the American Republic, 1760-1860

I was disappointed in my search for pictures of Sarah Munroe, Lavinia Wright, or really anything to do with the United Tailoresses’ Society. One online article outright stated, “We know very little about this speaker, Sarah Monroe, other than that she was a garment worker and president of the newly formed United Tailoress Society -- the first women-only union in the United States.”

I am in awe of this working-class woman, Sarah Monroe, who is quoted by Michael Zakim as saying in 1831:

It needs no small share of courage for us, who have been used to impositions and oppression from our youth up to the present day, to come before the public in defense of our rights; but, my friends, if it is unfashionable for the men to bear oppression in silence, why should it not also become unfashionable with the women?

New: Foreign Labour Influx Because Malaysians Refuse to Take Certain Jobs Now

CONFLICT AND NEGOTIATION. ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW

Conflict is endemic in organisational life because of the complications of diversity, culture, ideology, individual and group differences and the diversity of interests and goals of members of the organisation. One of the main duties of managers is to find the means of navigating the narrow bridge of organisational politics of differences and the need for competition and cooperation in the bid…

Why do librarians hate James Patterson?

OH I ACTUALLY KNOW THIS or at least I know from what my friends with library/bookselling experience have said, what I've heard is that it's because he writes (or has his name slapped on books written by ghost writers whatever the case may be) So Many God Damn Books that shelving them all is a nightmare

I personally hate him because I read 80% of the Maximum Ride series as a preteen and boy do those books go down the toilet-

#hes also claimed that white men have it hard in the publishing industry. sure bud.#idk if that one in particular is related but he just seems like a general Annoyance

"600 GO ON STRIKE AT GLASS PLANT," Toronto Star. February 1, 1943. page 11. --- Wallaceburg, Feb. 1 - (CP) - Six hundred employees of the Dominion Glass Co. here are on strike following the company's alleged refusal to bargain with them collectively. George Burt, Canadian director of the United Automobile Workers' union (C.I.O.) announced.

Application for a board of conciliation was made two months ago following a strike at the plant, said Burt, adding that employees consider the company a war industry. The company does not consider it should be classed as a war industry, said Burt.

Burt charged the strike was precipitated "by discrimination and intimidation of union men and sudden layoffs, and it is also due to the failure of the government to set up proper and reasonably prompt conciliation and bargaining machinery."
