Episode Details

Back during the start of the 20th century, the Gilded Age gave way to the Progressive Era as immigrant labor was forced to work long hours in terrible working conditions. This all came to a head on March 25, 1911, when a fire broke out in the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory in New York's Lower East Side, killing 146 people. It was one of the greatest tragedies in the history of America.
