Read the excerpt from We Shall Not Be Moved. League women came and went, usually at a run. Some were "ladies,” like Mary Dreier, others were worker-members, like Rose Schneiderman, a former cap maker, and Leonora O’Reilly, who had started work in a collar factory at the age of eleven. Another League member, Rose Pastor Stokes, known as the red Yiddish Cinderella, used to work in a cigar factory. When she became engaged to the son of a millionaire — they had met at a settlement house — front page headlines in the New York Times announced J. G. Phelps Stokes to Wed Young Jewess. At strike headquarters Mrs. Stokes delivered fiery speeches about freeing workers from the shackles of the bosses.

What conclusion can be drawn by connecting knowledge of the historical time period with information in the text?

The women of the league were wealthy women who had little-to-no experience working in a garment factory.
The support of wealthy league women contributed to the successful outcome of the female garment workers' strike.
Women who worked in garment factories were often married, so it was not critical that they receive equal pay.
Women who did not need to work were not interested in or aware of the difficulties faced by garment factory workers.
