Triangle Accolades
I want to commend you for your March 25 special section on the centennial of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire. I will use it in my master’s-level class, “Social Welfare and the Jewish Community,” in the College of Social Work at the Ohio State University.
The Forward took up the cause of the labor union movement 100 years ago and continues the battle for the worker in our time. My grandmother read the Yiddish Forward, and I am a proud subscriber today.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you move on, I wanted to ask you to support the Forward’s award-winning journalism during our High Holiday Monthly Donor Drive.
If you’ve turned to the Forward in the past 12 months to better understand the world around you, we hope you will support us with a gift now. Your support has a direct impact, giving us the resources we need to report from Israel and around the U.S., across college campuses, and wherever there is news of importance to American Jews.
Make a monthly or one-time gift and support Jewish journalism throughout 5785. The first six months of your monthly gift will be matched for twice the investment in independent Jewish journalism.
