| 520 | |a What started with ten office workers in Boston started out sitting in a circle and sharing the problems they encountered on the job became, in a few short years, a nationwide movement that united people of diverse races, classes, and ages. They took on the corporate titans. They leafleted and filed lawsuits and started a woman-led union. They won millions of dollars in back pay and helped make sexual harassment and pregnancy discrimination illegal. The women office workers who rose up to win rights and respect on the job transformed workplaces throughout America. And along the way came Dolly Parton's toe-tapping song and a hit movie inspired by their work. This volume is an informative firsthand account of this movement, packed with practical organizing lore that will embolden anyone striving for fair treatment. --From publisher's description. | ||
