An account of the resource
During the Progressive era, some women believed they could improve conditions for workers through their power as consumers—how they decided what products to buy, and from which stores. At both the local and national levels, women organized consumers' leagues to boycott (not buy from) businesses that didn’t treat its workers well or pay them enough. Consumers’ leagues also started programs that put labels on goods that were made with fair labor standards, so shoppers could buy from companies and stores that treated workers well. This newspaper article describes the work of the Brooklyn Consumers' League.

Founded in 1903, the Women’s Trade Union League (WTUL) was an organization that brought together working-class women, reformers, and women from wealthy and prominent families. The WTUL believed that the best way to help women workers was to help them organize into labor unions so that they could bargain for fair pay and safe working conditions. WTUL members provided money to striking workers, walked on picket lines, got lawyers for strikers who were arrested, and sometimes were arrested themselves. This statement was written in support of a strike of 35,000 female garment workers in Chicago in 1910.

Description
An account of the resource
San Francisco's first public school for Chinese immigrants, known first as the Chinese School and then as the Oriental School, began operating in 1859. The school was designed to segregate (separate) Chinese children from white children in the city's public schools. In 1924, after years of protest by Chinese residents who found the name "Oriental School" offensive, it was renamed the Commodore Stockton School. The first excerpt is from an oral history interview with Thomas Chinn, who attended the school; the second is from an 1896 issue of the San Francisco magazine The Wave, which comments more generally on Chinatown's children.

An account of the resource
The Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association of San Francisco (commonly known as "the Six Companies") was an organization of regional- and family-based self-help societies in Chinatown. They helped to get new immigrants housing, food, and jobs. In 1876, its leaders petitioned President Ulysses S. Grant and challenged the growing political movement to limit Chinese immigration. In the first excerpt below, from the petition, the Six Companies also tried to speak out against stereotypes about their own activities. The second excerpt, from an 1898 book, shows the kinds of stereotypes people had about Chinatown.
