The correct answer is B.

In the factories employers paid women one-half to two-thirds of what men doing the same job earned.

Between 1840 and 1850, more women went to work in factories in the United States. They had to face discrimination not only regarding wages.

This necessity for better working conditions led to labor union organizing involving women.

In 1844, employees from Lowell Mill factory organized the Lowell Female Labor Reform Association (LFLRA) having Darah Bagley as the first president.

In 1850, Female Protective Union was established in Cleveland aiming to improve the conditions faced by women in the garment industry.

These organizations were succesfull in improving the life of the working women, but, even today, it is a subject that we must be on alert on a daily basis.
