Sweating for a T-Shirt

Title

Notes

When incoming UCLA freshman Arlen Benjamin stops by the campus gift shop to buy a t-shirt, she notices that her purchase was made in Honduras. Asking the question "Who made this t-shirt?" sends her on a journey with her mother, Medea, through Honduras' sweatshop industry. It also starts her asking where the billions of dollars worth of clothes sold at college stores are being made and what students can do to help eliminate sweatshops. Join Arlen as she meets with workers, factory owners, union organizers, and human rights activists. Learn how workers making clothing for wealthy US companies earn $3.50 a day when the basic cost of living is $8 a day.
