DESCRIPTION:South Bay Shipbuilders: How Wartime Production Changed the Bay Area’s 
 Labor\nLearn about the Sunnyvale firm, which produced the power trains for 
 the major shipyards launching the Liberty and Victory class ships. Meet the 
 Peninsula Shipyards, which fabricated both steel and concrete vessels at 
 South San Francisco.\n Find out about the large migrations to the Bay Area 
 to meet the labor needs of these massive shipyards, which operated 24 
 hours. See the breakthroughs made during this period by African American 
 and women workers, and how these breakthroughs were handled by the craft 
 unions. Witness the relative labor peace that prevailed between AFL and CIO 
 and the employers.\n Most of all meet the workers themselves, whose 
 productivity and skills generated incredible production. Then hear the 
 challenges, which occurred when production ceased.\n For info:
