It’s the Money, Honey

Part of the Series

2014 0310ld fbThis installment of “Our Fashion Year,” our year-long investigation into gender, labor and cultural production, looks at the frustrating similarities faced by apparel workers in factories all over the world. It’s our first with Ellen Lindner, who will also illustrate the next two strips, tracing the economic opportunities available to women outside of the garment industry.

Don’t miss the previous in the series, “Fast Fashion,” “Let’s Go Shopping” and “The Business of Thrift” with Julia Gfrörer, and “Zoned,” “Red Tape” and “Outta Sight (Out of Mind)” with Melissa Mendes, or the full archive of our previous three years of strips. Next month, we’ll visit an anti-trafficking organization. We know you won’t want to miss it.

We’re not going to stand for it. Are you?

You don’t bury your head in the sand. You know as well as we do what we’re facing as a country, as a people, and as a global community. Here at Truthout, we’re gearing up to meet these threats head on, but we need your support to do it: We must raise $23,000 before midnight tomorrow to ensure we can keep publishing independent journalism that doesn’t shy away from difficult — and often dangerous — topics.

We can do this vital work because unlike most media, our journalism is free from government or corporate influence and censorship. But this is only sustainable if we have your support. If you like what you’re reading or just value what we do, will you take a few seconds to contribute to our work?
