Labor leader
|
Elizabeth Flynn Rodgers (August 25, 1847 – August 27, 1939) was an Irish-American labor leader. One of the first women to hold an office in the Knights of Labor, Rodgers advocated for women's rights in the workplace while raising her ten children. In the 1870s, she led a small group of women to organize the Working Women's Union, the first labor union for women in Chicago. Later in life, she helped found a fraternal life insurance organization, the Women's Catholic Order of Foresters, and led the organization for over fifteen years.
