Women Workers' Education, Life Narratives and Politics

More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of workers' education and political activism, this book delves into the pivotal role of women in labor struggles. It examines the intellectual contributions of women workers, particularly through the correspondence of Fannia Mary Cohn, a key figure in the garment industry's union movement. By analyzing gender as a crucial factor in labor, education, and migration, the author highlights the impact of feminist narrative techniques and argues for the vital role of working women in shaping the cultural and intellectual landscape of the twentieth century.
