Immigration brought waves of Europeans into the mill towns of the Northeast. With this came overcrowded tenements, income disparity, and anti-immigrant sentiment. All of these elements converged In Little Falls, New York, a mill city in the Mohawk Valley of central New York. Strike Story is a dramatic retelling of events leading up to and during the Little Falls, New York, Textile Strike of 1912. Presented as readers' theatre, the play relies on the words of people involved as well as the published accounts of the events from contemporary newspapers and material from government documents. The play dramatizes the impact of the tuberculosis crisis in Little Falls, the role of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire on mills throughout New York State, and the day-by-day events of the strike with focus on the free speech fight and the riot of October 30, 1912.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angela Harris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1483940810\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781483940816\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.19d","brand":"Angela Harris","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48241316724991,"sku":"9781483940816","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2fa9ce0f-979c-47bc-967e-5906d06df349.jpg?v=1772653835","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/strike-story-angela-harris-9781483940816","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
