The Radium Girls
Manage episode 415187154 series 3456533
The young women who worked as watch face dial painters during and after WW1 counted themselves lucky to have landed such an opportunity. The pay made them top earners in their communities, the job was seen as glamorous, and they got to work in close contact with the new miracle health element: radium. Except of course that radium is actually radioactive poison. But they didn’t know that. Yet.
