SDSA’s Queer and Feminist Caucus (the “QFC”) recently started a new series called the Labor History Happy Hour, where they investigate and discuss the role of women and LGBTQ+ folk in the history of labor struggles. Joshua got to chat with two members of the QFC, Takeshi and Katie, about the new series and the subject of the first installment: the Pawtucket Mill strike of 1824.
