workingclasshistory:

On this day, 10 April 1932, thousands of mostly women mill workers joined a strike against the reduction in rations in Teikovo, in the Soviet Union. The workers complained that the 30-50% reduction in rations would leave them starving, while managers, Communist Party and secret police officials received plenty of food.
Women called out their colleagues, sabotaged machines and denounced those who refused to walk out as “traitors”. They gathered around the town, and converged on the town square, making speeches, and dragging a CP member off the rostrum after he condemned the strike. The following morning, only 130 workers went into work.
The secret police made numerous arrests, and by April 17 the strike had been broken. While no women were prosecuted, several men who had been active in the strike were exiled or sent to labour camps with three-year sentences.
