The forgotten strike : equality, gender, and class in the Trico equal pay strike.
This article explores the events and issues of narrative and political identity surrounding the relatively unconsidered Trico equal pay strike, which took place over twenty-one weeks in the summer of 1976. It begins by reflecting on how the strike has been framed as either an addendum to the more celebrated Grunwick dispute or ignored altogether in existing historiography.

Using a range of media coverage and oral histories, it contrasts this with the importance of the strike to participants and the feminist, socialist, and national media.
