## Step 1The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire 25, 1911, in New York City. This tragic event resulted in the death of 146 garment workers, most of whom were young immigrant women.## Step 2The primary cause of the high death toll was the unsafe working conditions in the factory. The workers were trapped inside the burning building because the exit doors were locked to prevent theft and unauthorized breaks.## Step 3The locked doors and lack of adequate fire escapes led to the workers' inability to escape the fire, resulting in their deaths.## Step 4The other options provided, such as corrupt law enforcement, racial violence, and union protests, were not direct causes of the high death toll in this incident. The main issue was the unsafe working conditions, which were exacerbated by the locked doors and lack of fire escapes.
