Made in L.A part 1 x3

1. How is the life of sweatshop workers in L.A. the same as those in Indonesia? How is it different?

They're life in L.A is different from workers in Idonesia because in L.a parents had to leave their kids in el salvador to live and from the companies making them work so hard they can't even see their kids in el salvador because they hardly have money. Also Did u know the parents haven't seen their children in almost 18 yrs.

2. Why is it that poor immigrants (newcomers) end up working at sweatshops? Why don’t they work as lawyers or doctors or at Mcdonalds?

New comers end up working in sweatshops because they need money and they can't work in fast food places because they don't have their working papers.

3. Predict what’s going to happen by the end of this movie?

What i predict that they are going to win in this protest !

SwooSh Part 3 >

(Letter to Nike)
Dear Nike ;
I am a nike worker and i hate my life !.. I hate When you nike companies
give us so much hours to work and i never get to stay home. My child is
only 3 years old and i never get to see her. Also My life is like a jungle;
i only live on 1.50 A day and i live in a little house with one bathroom and
no shower just a bucket of water for everything. Nike companies are in inspirational
but they got us living like crap. And when people try to make differences to help
us ; nike dosen't let them . I hope they make a difference Soon !!


Sincerely , nike worker sabrina
