sweatshop animation :)

made in L.A 3

1. If it were up to you to make the decision, would you let the sweatshop workers become legal U.S. citizens? Why or why not? i would let it be legal but i would give them more money i would pay them 15 dollars an hour because you doing the borough a favor.

2. Describe a moment in from parts 1, 2, or 3 of this movie that you found particularly memorable? Why?

that they pay them 3.25 an hour and sometimes have to bring clothes home because forever 21 wants it at a certain time.

3. By the end of part 3, the protestors seem to be giving up hope. If you were able to speak to the group, what would you say to them to inspire them to keep going?

I would say to keep going with your dream and protest until you get whats yours.

FOREVER21

1. Who does Forever 21 blame for the sweatshops? Why?

I would blame Mr.Lahana because he was the one you paid the contractor $10.

2. What’s wrong with Forever 21′s argument?

The problem is that they aren't making enough money.

3. Why do the workers continue to protest even if it means they might lose their jobs?

Because they know they are not making a lot of money and they know it's not fair.

Made IN L.A

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

They have lots of cockroaches and rats in there house. They get little pay for many hours of work. There are different because L.A workers have better beds and toilets. Further more, they live in a better enviroment. Indonesia workers have no clothes and they live in shacks with over 12 people.

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?

Immigrants cant work in good jobs because one, the law probably think they dont have the skills for that type of job.Also they need there papers and education.

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

What I think is going to happen is that those L.A sweatshop workers are going to get there papers and get educated and march for there rights with a whole bunch of immigrants.

One day my Uncle edgar and my Aunt megan good said they would take me and my sisterbeyonce on a trip to california.

“You will love california,” said Aunt megan good. “It is famous for its wild dods, itswhite flowers, and its beautiful sitting hills.”

“I hope you packed plenty of pears for the ride,” said Uncle edgar. “It will probably take us 4 hours.”

So we all piled into Uncle edgar and Aunt megan good's cadalac. At first the trip was really large. We sang “6 Bottles of water on the Wall.” Then we counted the bears that we saw chilling in the fields by the side of the road. But after 3 hours we had eaten all thepears and beyonce was getting tiny.

“Are we almost there?” she asked slowly.

“Yes, fuzzy,” said Aunt megan good.

Just then I saw a sign that said, “springfield: 2 miles.”

“Umm, Uncle edgar, is springfield on the way to california?” I asked.

“Yeah,” said beyonce, pointing, “and is statue of librity on the way to california?”

“what the hell!!, kids,” laughed Uncle edgar. “You can trust the expert.”
