Present
A documentary film viewing and discussion about Maquilapolis: City of Factories - Carmen Duran works the graveyard shift in one of Tijuana's 800 maquiladoras: she is one of six million women around the world who labor for poverty wages in the factories of transnational corporations. After making television components all night, Carmen comes home to a dirt floor shack she built out of cast-off garage doors from the U.S., in a neighborhood with no sewage lines or electricity.
