DESCRIPTION:“Bread and Roses” is a moving dramatization of the successful 1990 
 Justice for Janitors strike in Century City, LA. The film follows the story 
 of two sisters and the hardships they face as immigrants trying to survive 
 in the U.S. The film shows the workers’ resolve to fight for a living 
 wage and benefits in the face of intimidation and bribery by the bosses. 
 Despite threats of deportation and firings, the janitors are 
 victorious.\n\nThe demand of “Bread and Roses” adopted by the striking 
 janitorial workers likened their struggle to the multi-ethnic strike of men 
 and women textile workers in Lawrence, Mass. in 1912 which won better 
 wages. (2000, 110min., English and Spanish with English 
 subtitles)\n\nDiscussion will follow the film.\n \n$5-10 donation (no one 
 turned away for lack of funds) \nWheelchair accessible. Refreshments

 Racism\n\nWatch the trailer\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IrDpd4sCswY\n\n
