Primary sources are the basis of most historical scholarship, and one of the goals in this class is to get you comfortable analyzing primary sources as historians do. My challenge to you is to analyze a primary source related to the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire, and our discussion of women in the labor force. You may choose either “Days and Dreams” by Sadie Frown or “My First Job” by Rose Cohen, which both describe life working in a sweatshop. You can find the sources here: https://trianglefire.ilr.cornell.edu/primary/
