On March 25, 1911, a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory in New York City causing the deaths of 148 garment workers—an event that came to be known as one of the hallmark tragedies of the industrial age. This website tells the story of the fire in six chapters: Introduction; Sweatshops and Strikes; Fire; Mourning and Protest; Relief Work; and Investigation, Trial, and Reform.

The text, targeted to a middle and high school audience, is accompanied by numerous primary sources that could be of use to more advanced researchers. These include close to 70 photographs, 18 newspaper articles, 17 testimonials, three oral histories, excerpts from investigative reports written in the years following the fire, several letters from witnesses, a lecture given by Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins in 1964, and a radio drama reenacting the event. Accompanying these primary sources is a list of victims and witnesses, a selected bibliography of works surrounding the fire, and tips for writing a paper.

This interpretive essay, more than 10,000 words, on the culture wars of the 1910s and 1920s, is organized into four sections. It offers 34 documents and 75 images—photographs, cartoons, posters, flyers, and maps—to provide historical context and connections between seemingly unrelated phenomena. "Prohibition" includes an exhibition of photographs, political cartoons, and documents from the Ohio Dry Campaign of 1918. "Anti-Immigration and the KKK" presents a Klansman's manual, anti-immigration magazine articles, and the text of the Immigration Act of 1924. "The New Woman" contains sections on image and lifestyle, sexuality, opposition, the African American New Woman, and work, education, and reform. "The Scopes Trial" includes documents on fundamentalism and evolution and trial transcripts. The website provides 28 related links and bibliographies of 42 titles. This valuable site emphasizes the complexity of conflicts persistent throughout 20th-century American history.

This collection of documents—roughly 3,800 pages of court proceedings—concerns the Haymarket Affair. This watershed event in the history of American radicalism led to the first "Red Scare" in America. Materials include autobiographies of two of the eight anarchists tried for conspiracy in the murder of seven Chicago police officers. The officers died after a bomb exploded at an anarchist meeting in May 1886, the day after two workers died in a struggle between police and locked-out union members at the McCormick Reaper factory. Four defendants were executed, despite lack of evidence connecting them to the bombing. The site presents approximately 221 newspaper clippings, 55 photographs, 19 letters, nine broadsides, and images of more than 20 artifacts. A linked exhibition, "The Dramas of Haymarket," furnishes a historical narrative and contextual interpretation. This website is valuable for the study of late 19th-century American radicalism, law enforcement, and political climate.
