Better working conditions was the biggest problem. Many workers were locked in rooms many floors up so when they needed to escape it was either very difficult/impossible. Another problem was the fire escape not being very good they had a fire escape but many couldn't get down it since the flames had already engulfed most of it forcing people to jump to their deaths.

Due to the length I would have to write to explain this to you, I thank <span>harveymac1336 from Yahoo for helping me. 

</span><span>"The Triangle Shirtwaist Company fire occurred on March 25, 1911, in a New York City sweatshop. It resulted in the deaths of 146 people, mostly young Jewish and Italian immigrant women. It was the worst workplace disaster in New York history. This tragic event touched off a national movement in the United States for safer working conditions. The fire started on the eighth floor of the Asch Building and quickly spread to the two top floors of the building. There were 278 sewing machines on the 9th floor. Most of the women were working on the 9th floor. There were also men, foreman, and bookkeepers. The fire spread up through the elevator shaft to the 9th floor. Since the doors were locked to prevent theft many of the women leaped from windows to their death. Fire truck ladders were unable to reach beyond the sixth floor. The building's fire escape collapsed. This disaster led to the creation of health and safety legislation, including fire codes and child-labor laws. I hope that this has been a help to you."

What role do you think violence has in resisting colonialism?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

While African resistance to European colonialism is often thought of in terms of a white and black/European and African power struggle, this presumption underestimates the complex and strategic thinking that Africans commonly employed to address the challenges of European colonial rule. It also neglects the colonial-era power dynamic of which African societies and institutions were essential components.

After the Berlin Conference of 1884–85, at which the most powerful European countries agreed upon rules for laying claim to particular African territories, the British, French, Germans, Italians, Spanish, Belgians, and Portuguese set about formally implementing strategies for the long-term occupation and control of Africa. The conquest had begun decades earlier—and in the case of Angola and South Africa, centuries earlier. But after the Berlin Conference it became more systematic and overt.

The success of the European conquest and the nature of African resistance must be seen in light of Western Europe's long history of colonial rule and economic exploitation around the world. In fact, by 1885 Western Europeans had mastered the art of divide, conquer, and rule, honing their skills over four hundred years of imperialism and exploitation in the Americas, Asia, and the Pacific. In addition, the centuries of extremely violent, protracted warfare among themselves, combined with the technological advances of the Industrial Revolution, produced unmatched military might. When, rather late in the period of European colonial expansion, Europeans turned to Africa to satisfy their greed for resources, prestige, and empire, they quickly worked their way into African societies to gain allies and proxies, and to co-opt the conquered kings and chiefs, all to further their exploits. Consequently, the African responses to this process, particularly the ways in which they resisted it, were complex.
