SUMMARY:Postponed: Diane Taraz: Factory maids—The lives of New England millworkers (Concert)
DESCRIPTION:UPDATE: This concert has been postponed to a future date to be determined. \nIn the early 1800s\, the invention of the power loom disrupted the way fabric had been made for many centuries—and the lives of those who had made it. Diane explores the revolutionary changes that millwork brought to the lives of many people\, especially women\, who seized new opportunities for better pay and independence\, flocking to the mills to “weave by steam.” \nIn the first U.S. mills in Waltham and Lowell\, Yankee girls worked 12-hour days\, 6 days a week\, but still found time to publish a magazine. There were two songs in “The Lowell Offering\,” and Diane will sing them\, accompanied by her antique guitar which dates from the 1820s. She also plays lap dulcimer and wears the clothing worn by mill “operatives\,” as they were called. \nAs a descendant of immigrant millworkers on both sides of her family\, Diane is honored to tell their story through songs that capture both despair and hope for a better life.

SUMMARY:Mill Talk: The stories of women war workers at Raytheon\, 1941-1945
DESCRIPTION:From suffragette to war worker – and military ranks open to women\, presented by Chet Michalak\, Raytheon historian and archivist. \nThe suffragette movement ends the 100-year struggle for women’s rights in 1920 and is followed by a home front effort that dramatically increases the ranks of female war workers.

In 1977 he joined the U.S. Army 3/2nd Armored Cavalry followed by a tour with the Massachusetts Army National Guard.

SUMMARY:Mill Talk: Why are workers' stories missing at historic sites?
DESCRIPTION:The labor movement in the United States is a bulwark of democracy and a driving force for social and economic equality. Yet its stories remain largely unknown to Americans. Robert Forrant and Mary Anne Trasciatti edited a collection of essays focused on nationwide efforts to propel the history of labor and working people into mainstream narratives of US history. The book\, “Where Are the Workers?” shows how working-class perspectives can expand our historical memory and inform and inspire contemporary activism. The talk will explore lessons learned from nationwide efforts to promote our understanding of labor and working-class history. \nMill Talks at the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation are free and open to the public and are made possible by the generous support of the Lowell Institute. \nFree to the pubic\, but registration required.

SUMMARY:When Waltham Strikes
DESCRIPTION:Opening this Wednesday. \nThis Labor Day\, the Charles River Museum of Industry and Innovation celebrates workers and their contributions to the development of the United States with the new exhibition “When Waltham Strikes.” \nDid you know that the first industrial labor strike was staged at the site of our museum by women working at the Boston Manufacturing Company in 1821? \n“When Waltham Strikes” highlights this important piece of our history alongside the “monster strike” that took place at the Waltham Watch Company 100 years later. The exhibit connects both of these events with modern labor activists and movements to explore why workers go on strike\, what they can achieve\, and why strikes are important. \nMuseum admission information. \n
