As weavers, garment workers, and peddlers, Syrian immigrants in the Americas fed the early twentieth-century transnational textile trade. As migrants and merchants crisscrossed the Atlantic, Syrian textile manufacturing expanded across the hemisphere. Unmentionables offers a history of the global textile industry and those who worked in it.
