This Day in Labor History: March 25, 1911. 146 workers at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory in New York City died when the building in which they worked caught on fire. Let's talk about the horrors of the Triangle Fire, what changed, and what remains the same 114 years later (mostly it's all the same)

They made me cut it because the source didn't want to use their name, but a Smithsonian official told me they didn't want these monuments because "museums aren't America's attic for its racist shit."
