DESCRIPTION:Bisbee ’17 (119 min.)\nDirected by Robert Greene (2018)\nThe hidden 
 history of the American working class is exposed in this new film. This 
 film is centered around the attack on immigrant copper miners, who in July 
 12, 1917, were rounded up and illegally deported out of the town by placing 
 them in cattle cars. The train eventually ended up in New Mexico where the 
 miners were later incarcerated by the US military. The Mexican and European 
 workers had been organized by the IWW in the midst of the 1st world war 
 when the price of copper was skyrocketing. The mine companies also used a 
 group called the ‘loyalty leaguers’ to charge that the miners had 
 actually been infiltrated by the Germans who the US was at war with. The 
 film interviews members of families in the town and even residents whose 
 families later returned to the town.\n\nToday as immigrant bashing is the 
 new “normal” and the organized terrorism against Mexican workers and 
 their families and children is now government policy, this film resonates 
 that racism, ethnic cleansing and immigrant bashing goes back over a 
 hundred years ago.\nSee
