A review by roksyreads
The Radium Girls by Kate Moore

emotional informative reflective sad slow-paced

5.0

A heartbreaking and inspirational account of resilience and bravery in the face of corporate greed, corruption, and utter negligence, The Radium Girls is a must read for anyone interested in social and cultural history. Moore paints in vivid detail the women (and their supporters) at the forefront of the movement to hold their employer(s) to account, and whose actions made significant contributions to early workers' rights movements more broadly. It was a privilege to read this book again after first reading it in February 2020.
