Anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire

This week marks 100 years since a fire at the Triangle Waist Company factory in New York City killed 146 people, most of them poor young women. The event is often cited as the catalyst for modern workplace safety rules, and a major boost to the nascent union movement. A century later, the debate over the nation's labor laws continues to rage.
