Hello, ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
a_reader_is_me people! I signed up for this community about a million years ago (or so it seems... Oh, those happy days of 2010), and am combining two things in order to actually make my reading challenge happen: my desire (as posted in my intro) to read 50 history books about the experiences of people of colour in Canada, and my PhD Comps reading. (My Canadian history required comps list is a bit light on race & ethnicity, but I have a lot of lee-way in my optional reading.)
That said, a book! Required reading:
Title: Sweatshop Strife: Class, Ethnicity, and Gender in the Jewish Labour Movement of Toronto, 1900-1939
Author: Ruth A. Frager
Number of Pages: 300, including index, appendix, notes, bibliography, picture credits, not including several pages of black & white photos.
Genre: labour history
Book Number/Goal: 1 of 50
Review:
