From National Labor Committee:
Going After Disney: Campaign for the Abolition of Sweatshops and
Child Labor
Tuesday,
September 24/Washington, DC:
The workers spoke to a meeting of national women's organizations
organized by Donna Edwards of the Arca Foundation at the Washington
Hotel. The response was enthusiastic. Working together with these
women's organizations will break new ground for the Abolition of
Sweatshops and Child Labor. At the meeting were Coalition members
from TransAfrica Forum, United Students Against Sweatshops and the
International Labor Rights Education Fund. Ira Arlook did excellent
outreach. In Washington the delegation did interviews with the Washington
Post, New York Times, National Public Radio, Agence France Presse
and Gannett.
** We learned from a reporter that Disney claims to have secretly
visited the Shah Makhdum factory five times in the course of 2001
and
did not find a single violation. (Who could possibly be doing their
monitoring?)
