…the website Findagrave, of any and all names I discover that worked at the US Radium or clock painting companies in Orange NJ, Waterbury CT, and Ottawa IL. Hoping the hivemind here might have some as-yet-unexplored resources I can check out regarding this endeavor. #RadiumGirls #Undark

eigentlich faszinierend, dass wir ein Asbest- oder FCKW-Verbot durchgesetzt haben, obwohl in diesen Bereichen sicher auch viele Beschäftigte waren... genau wie #Radiumgirls die die Leuchtziffern auf Uhren mit Radium aufgemalt haben...

Reading #RadiumGirls might have been a mistake. It's compelling, but the story is overly familiar: selfish men sacrificing girls & young women on the alter of capitalism.

Didn't reach my reading goals for 2025, but I did have a cross country move and started working full-time, so I'm still pretty proud.

When life is stranger than fiction. The unsettling history of the radium girls is a warning for the modern day, when profit is put above people, suffering is almost always unleashed.

To this day, some of the radium girls still glow in their graves. This is what happens when corporate interests are put above people, and it’s a lesson we all need to remember right now.

A gold wristwatch with a white dial and dark burns radiating from the centre.
Today from the #TimeLibrary: this gorgeous #Hamilton #radium watch, c 1950, with wicked #radiation burns on the dial. Up until the 50s #watches were painted with #radioactive paint so you could read them in the dark. Many of the women who painted the dials got sick and died.

This incredible episode of #CautionaryTales and the subsequent one about the #RadiumGirls reminds us why we need to stay vigilant as workers and consumers, and why it's critically important for the government to protect #workersrights

This is one of history’s many examples of how #corporategreed caused unspeakable human suffering. #RadiumGirls, as they came to be known, used radium to #paint watches for soldiers. #Radiation from #radium caused #cancer and tissue damage, and made many of these girls #glow; some are still glowing.
