DESCRIPTION:Garment workers in El Salvador attempt to organize their factory in the 
 face of anti-union repression, but management pulls out hoping to crush the 
 movement. Thanks to international solidarity, in particular student 
 organizing, the union not only forms but takes over production. Meanwhile 
 in California, the AFSCME union calls a statewide strike at all UC campuses 
 to win a new contract, and Santa Cruz becomes the focal point when students 
 and workers shut down their university. \n\nCome see how these events play 
 out through two films \nby Media Insurgente--Producing Just Garments and 
 Estamos Aquí--followed by a discussion with the filmmakers and the workers 
 involved in these struggles.\n\n$5-10 Sliding Scale\n(no one turned away 
 for lack of funds)\n\n***A portion of your ticket price will be donated to 
 Just Garments***\n\nSponsored By: \nGlobal Exchange\nCenter for Political 
 Education\nCISPES\nUnited Students Against Sweatshops\nInstitute for 
 Multi-Racial Justice\nBay Area Labor Committee for Peace and Justice\nSEIU
