SUMMARY:Film: Killing Floor (114 min) 1984
DESCRIPTION:Producer-Writer: Elsa Rassbach\, Director: Bill Duke (1985 Sundance Film Festival Special Jury Award)\nOne hundred years ago\, a critical struggle was taking place in the slaughterhouses in Chicago to organize a union. This powerful dramatic film focuses on the Polish and African American workers and their conditions as they fight to overcome racism and class hate and greed\, in order to build a union of black and white workers.\nAfrican American workers traveled to Chicago for jobs and the continuing struggles that led to race riots in Chicago in 1919.\nElsa Rassbach fought for PBS to do a series of films on working class history but this was the only one that was able to get funded.  \nhttp://www.thekillingfloor-thefilm.com/index.html

SUMMARY:The Golden Spike: Chinese and Irish Labor versus The Big Four
DESCRIPTION:May 10\, 2019 will be the 150th anniversary of the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad\, a momentous accomplishment which has excluded recognition of the contribution of Chinese railroad workers to the wealth of The Big Four and the building of the American Empire\, which connected East Coast to West across the Pacific to the China Trade.\nThis labor story will be told by descendant Paulette Liang and Stanford professor Hilton Obenzinger with analysis by CCSF labor studies professor Bill Shields and global supply chain researcher Gifford Hartman. Music will be performed by folklorist Charlie Chin and Loni Ding’s 25-min. video The Canton Army in the High Sierras will be screened.\nFor more information: lyfong@pacbell.net \n  \n
