Radium Girls
This book exposes one of the most chilling corporate scandals of the early 20th century and gives us a glimpse of the extraordinary courage of the women who refused to be quiet victims. These incredible women were poisoned by the very substance they were assured was harmless and kept fighting for justice. Moore gives us a devastating historical account of this part of women’s history, and reminds us that so many women have suffered for us to be where we are today. We need to keep bringing these past voices to light, so we never forget and never stop pushing for better.
