Reviews
This deeply moving and poignant anthology reminds us that the past is not over. By feeling the truth of the Triangle Fire--the trauma, the loss, and the fury--each essay invites us to remember the beauty of workers and organizers then and today who fight for a world where the wellbeing of workers is not sacrificed for capitalist greed., "As co-editors Edvige Giunta and Mary Anne Trasciatti explain in the introduction, one of the collection's goals is to "explore the combination of intimate and political that permeates Triangle activism" by allowing the authors to interrogate their own relationships with the tragedy and contribute to the ongoing conversation about what is owed to those who came before... provide[s] valuable insight into what it takes to change the world -- or the workplace -- when the odds are stacked against you.", This work brings labor's history to life with stories and voices that have echoed down through generations. Apropos in these times as we are reminded of the horror of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire that fueled union organizing and union demands for enforceable occupational safety standards. As we learned then and painfully know now, workplace safety doesn't just happen. The essays create a rich, unique view of our past while calling us to stand in solidarity today. -- Sara Nelson, International President of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, AFL-CIO This deeply moving and poignant anthology reminds us that the past is not over. By feeling the truth of the Triangle Fire-the trauma, the loss, and the fury-each essay invites us to remember the beauty of workers and organizers then and today who fight for a world where the wellbeing of workers is not sacrificed for capitalist greed. -- Jennifer Guglielmo, Associate Professor of History, Smith College, author of Living the Revolution, and co-director, "Putting History in Domestic Workers' Hands" Talking to the Girls: Intimate and Political Essays on the Triangle Fire, is the first anthology of personal essays about this landmark tragedy-and spur for change-in American life. As such, these stories by survivors, family members, descendants, scholars, and activists are as sharp and sad and enraging and resolute as the fire itself was in galvanizing us to justice. Editors Edvige Giunta and Mary Anne Trasciatti do more than edit here, they know how to listen, and let these many varied voices bear witness. -- Kevin Baker, author of Dreamland As co-editors Edvige Giunta and Mary Anne Trasciatti explain in the introduction, one of the collection's goals is to "explore the combination of intimate and political that permeates Triangle activism" by allowing the authors to interrogate their own relationships with the tragedy and contribute to the ongoing conversation about what is owed to those who came before... provide[s] valuable insight into what it takes to change the world - or the workplace - when the odds are stacked against you. -- Kim Kelly * Teen Vogue *, This work brings labor's history to life with stories and voices that have echoed down through generations.
