Pacific Northwest Tour!

Just before Thanksgiving, we did a screening tour with Made in L.A. in the Pacific Northwest. Organized in partnership with the Pacific Northwest Sweatfree campaign, the tour stopped in 6 locations in Washington and Oregon and provided support to Sweatfree campaigns in the area. The idea of a Sweatfree campaign is to convince school districts, cities, states, and other institutional purchasers to adopt "sweatfree" purchasing policies and to prevent tax dollars from subsidizing sweatshops and abusive child labor. In the process talking about the film, of course, discussions linked Sweatfree work to discussions of fair labor as well as immigration reform in the US. Like our previous tours, it was quite an invigorating experience!
