DESCRIPTION:UNION TIME: Fighting for Workers' Rights presented by Reel Work Labor Film 
 Fest\n(Matthew Barr, 2016, 86min, USA)\n\nOne of the greatest union 
 victories of the 21st century was the 15 year fight to organize Smithfield 
 Foods' pork processing plant in Tar Heel, North Carolina. From 1993 to 
 2008, workers struggled against dangerous working conditions, intimidation, 
 and low pay. They were organized by the United Food and Commercial Workers 
 Union, whose "Justice for Smithfield Workers" campaign brought national 
 attention to the plight of the plant workers, and ultimately fair working 
 conditions for 5,000 workers.\n\nSpeaker: Dr. Angie Tran, Professor of 
 political economy at CSUMB\n\nEvent Hosts: Global Studies course on Migrant 
 Workers; Sponsor: California Faculty Association\n
