The Campaign Against Sweatshops: Hear the stories of the workers
This presentation will include two women who are ex-sweatshop workers, two Bangladeshi activists, as well as speakers from the National Labor Committee. The workers are women who have struggled far below the poverty line surviving on wages as low as 14 cents an hour.
Our goal is to raise awareness of this hidden issue that affects millions of workers, primarily women and children around the world. As US citizens we have the power and the voice to speak for the silenced workers.
This is a rare opportunity to see them speak for themselves, and find out what we can do to advance the global campaign against sweatshop and child labor.
