Made In L.A. Part2

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

They blame the contractors because they made the sweat shops.

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

They gave the contractor to little money so the didn't have enough to spread around to the workers.

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

I think because they were tired of working in bad conditions so they don't care.

Made In L.A. Part 1

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

Ans: It is pretty much the same but they live in better house but sometimes they have to work at hoe all night and barely get paid 2.00 $.

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?

Ans: i think they not allowed to so that is the only thing that have to turn to.

3. I think the workers are still going to be ignored even though their protesting so I think this movie is going to change anything.
