They Called it the Butcher Shop: The Fleck Strike in Images
Watch they called it the butcher shop: the fleck strike in images on SFlix. In 1978, in Huron Park, Ontario, the women of Fleck Manufacturing walked off of the job and into the history books. Fighting for better wages, safer working conditions, and union security, the strikers embarked on what would become a pivotal strike for both feminism and the labour movement. For five months the strikers faced backlash and police violence, but they also forged new alliances and built community. “They Called It The Butcher Shop: The Fleck Strike In Images” amplifies the voices of these women as they tell their story of struggle, solidarity, and sisterhood.
