For this first ever LaborFest event at Stanford, in recognition of an inspiring year of labor activism on campus, we will be showing Maquilapolis, a film about the lives of factory workers in Tijuana. In addition to the main feature, we will also show videos from the past year of actions by the United Stanford Workers (SEIU Local 2007), Stanford Labor Action Coalition (SLAC), and the Sweat-Free Stanford Campaign. The program will conclude with a panel and discussion featuring worker and student representatives from the USW, SLAC, and Sweat-Free Stanford.
