DESCRIPTION:A classic film about the fight for workers’ rights and women’s 
 equality. \n\nSalt of the Earth is a powerful and emotionally charged film 
 based on a 1950 strike by Mexican American and white zinc miners in Silver 
 City, New Mexico. Against a backdrop of social injustice, a riveting family 
 drama is played out by the characters of Ramon and Esperanza Quintero, a 
 Mexican-American miner and his wife. In the course of the strike, Ramon and 
 Esperanza find their roles reversed: an injunction against the male 
 strikers moves the women to take over the picket line, leaving the men to 
 domestic duties. The women evolve from men's subordinates into their allies 
 and equals. \n\nMade during the height of the McCarthy era, members of the 
 original "Hollywood Ten" united to create this impressively controversial 
 labor film despite severe pressure from the U.S. government. These 
 filmmakers were blacklisted and later imprisoned for refusing to answer 
 Congressional inquiries on First Amendment grounds. 1953, 94min.\n\nWatch 
 the film trailer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6Ro8dvYpsM \n\n$5-10
