The London match girls' strike of 1888 was supported by several socialist leaders. One person who supported them and helped was Annie Besant. Besant published an article about the girls in her weekly paper.
you strike the match
Yes! Safety matches contain sulfur, an oxidizing agent, and powdered glass (along with wood and glue etc.) and the strike-on-box strip contains powdered glass or silica sand and red phosphorous (and glue etc.). The friction of the glass on the match head with the glass in the strip is enough to ignite the red phosphorous which does a whiz-bang reaction which lights the match. While striking on a window isn't as easy because it doesn't have the added phosphorous whiz-bang, it's still possible for the glass-on-glass friction to provide enough heat to light the match anyway. You can see it on youtube or try it yourself (just make sure to rub out the marks on the glass & keep things safe).
well if is not supported then is not a theory.
supported is based on true knowledge
You have it backwards. Theories are supported by evidence. Evidence is not supported by theories, evidence is simply observed.

I think it was Whitechapel.
For the match girls themselves, the strike led to better working conditions, to direct access to the management in case of complaints and to better work hazard awareness. In a time when women's rights - in the workplace or elsewhere - were practically non-existent, the result of this all-female strike was seen as a stunning victory.

you strike the match
Strike it on a match box.
i believe it is a
you
the friction of the match causes the chemicals inside the match head to ignite...in cause as long as there is oxygen in the room the match will light as quick as you strike the match....in other words...the match only lights as fast as you can strike it
George Bush
When you strike a match, first the energy is chemical because of the chemcial on the tip of the match. Then, it is mechanical because your hand moves. Then it is thermal because the match lights on fire.
there like strike anywhere matches where you can strike them on anything that creates friction.
