In America during the Industrial Revolution, women left their jobs at farms to go work at mills. Some of the mills included Lowell's mills, and Slater's mill.

Some saw the Lowell mills as a symbol of America's superior social progress because they provided employment opportunities for women, which was considered progressive at the time. The mills also contributed to the early industrialization of the United States and demonstrated American innovation and growth in the textile industry. Additionally, the mills were seen as a way to promote economic independence and self-reliance among women.
In the United States, the first textile mill was established by Francis Cabot Lowell. Lowell visited England in the early 1800s, and toured textile mills while pretending to be an idiot. When he returned to the United States, he gave detailed descriptions and engineering drawings to a man named Paul Moody, creating spinning devices and a power loom. In order to raise the money for the mill, Lowell sold shares of stock in his company, an innovative approach at the time that later became the primary way capital is raised for corporations. The textile mill itself became the basis for the town of Lowell, Massachussetts, named for Francis Cabot Lowell. Lowell employed many women in his mills, which was also innovative at the time. He was able to pay women less than men, but women also benefited from the small measure of independence and camaraderie with other women.
The Lowell girls endured long working hours, the volume of the factory machinery was earsplitting, the work was monotonous and required little skill, stuffy working rooms, low wages, and bad health conditions.
The Lowell (Lowel) factories in Lowell, Massachusetts had women textile workers in the 19th century, which made them unique. One social effect caused by this include a form of labor agitation.
Harriet Hanson Robinson was a well-known writer and teacher who wrote about the Lowell mills. She was a former mill worker herself and later became an influential figure in the labor reform movement, advocating for better working conditions for women in the mills.
