A permanent memorial for the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire was unveiled in Lower Manhattan, 112 years after the tragedy that claimed the lives of over 100 workers in 1911. It is a reminder of the importance of workplace safety & renews our commitment to protecting workers. #1u

Never forget. If you want to learn more @StreamOnMax has the short documentary on the fire “Triangle: Remembering the fire.” Protections for #labor, #fire, #workplacesafety were fought for the result of other’s injuries or deaths. Respect the history.
