DESCRIPTION:H-2 Worker (90 min.) 1990 US \nby Stephanie Black\nStephanie Black has a 
 record of making films about the real costs of economic development 
 including Life and Debt about the economic destruction in Jamaica because 
 of IMF policies. In H-2 worker, we learn about the real labor conditions of 
 agricultural workers who are brought to the US and then used virtually as 
 slave labor in the H-2 program. These workers who are brought in to 
 Florida’s Lake Okeechobee area from Jamaica and the Caribbean are the 
 “slave” workers of America providing great profits for the agricultural 
 owners and misery for the workers and their families. It also is connected 
 with the efforts in California by some leading politicians to bring back 
 the “guest workers” program.\nAwards:\nSundance Film Festival 1990
