Memoir by one of America's outstanding labor organizers. Born in Ukraine, she came to the U.S. in 1913 to escape an arranged marriage, landed a job in a New York garment factory, and soon became a member of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union; by the early 1930s she had assumed a position on the staff of the union, and was often assigned to organize workers outside the NYC area. In 1933, she was instrumental in organizing garment workers in Los Angeles (many of whom were Mexican immigrants), and her success led to her appointment as vice-president of the union, a post she held from 1934 to 1944, when she resigned from its executive board because she didn't want to be the token woman on the board when women made up 85% of the organization's membership. ***This book is among the nearly 150 items offered in ReadInk's new Catalog Number 4, "Booking Passage: Books on the Immigrant Experience."
