United Textile Workers of America

The United Textile Workers of America (UTW) was a North American trade union established in 1901.[1] The United Textile Workers of America was founded following two conferences in 1901 under the aegis of the American Federation of Labor (AFL) as an amalgamation of several smaller craft unions.[1] The union's most important early leader was John Golden, a Lancashire-born spinner from Fall River, Massachusetts.A diminished UTW continued separately after 1939 and, in 1996, merged with the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union.Occurring primarily in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, the strike involved 40,000–50,000 workers who refused to work for approximately 200 days.
