DESCRIPTION:Salt of the Earth was the first film shown by the Economic Justice Film 
 Series which has shown 100 movies over the years. It is a 1954 American 
 drama film written by Michael Wilson, directed by Herbert J. Biberman, and 
 produced by Paul Jarrico. All had been blacklisted by the Hollywood 
 establishment due to their alleged involvement in communist politics.\n 94 
 minutes \n\n This drama film is one of the first pictures to advance the 
 feminist social and political point of view. Its plot centers on a long and 
 difficult strike, based on the 1951 strike against the Empire Zinc Company 
 in Grant County, New Mexico. In the film, the company is identified as 
 "Delaware Zinc," and the setting is "Zinctown, New Mexico." The film shows 
 how the miners, the company, and the police react during the strike. In 
 neorealist style, the producers and director used actual miners and their 
 families as actors in the film.\n\n This event is sponsored by Economic 
 Justice Film Series \n\n
