- Chinese Women Garment Workers in New York City, 1948-92

Om Holding Up More Than Half the Sky

In 1982, 20,000 Chinese American garment workers - mostly women - went on strike in New York's Chinatown and forced Chinese garment industry employers in the city to sign a union contract. This study explains how this militancy and organized protest, seemingly so at odds with traditional Chinese female behavior, came about.
