a bit of context: until recently, there actually weren't any of these—but now there might be two of them in very short period of time! the strippers at Star Garden, a North Hollywood topless bar, became the first in this space when they unionized last month.

(there has also been at least one previous stripper union in the US, but the establishment for it closed awhile ago.)
