I just finished reading #RadiumGirls by Kate Moore. Highly recommend to *all*.
The whole book has a lot to teach all of us about human nature, capitalism, misogyny, politics, government, history, & medical science. But one specific at the end of the book caught my attention: the dial-painters' lives & deaths led directly to the creation of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration ( #OSHA).
These women's involuntary sacrifices are the reason today's industrial safety standards exist.
