This is so cool! An artist's interactive map of women and the labor movement:

https://www.hillaryclinton.com/artist/mazza/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=tw&utm_campaign=20160905HFA+Artists+for+Hillary

About the project:
Inspired by Hillary Clinton’s historic nomination for president, Mazza created a floor-to-ceiling knitted map showcasing the lineage of women’s labor and celebrating the generations of women who have fought for equality. The piece is crafted from needlework, a historically feminized form of industrial labor, and symbols from historic moments in the labor movement are stitched on each state.
