Movie ‘Made in L.A.’ shows Friday evening at Richmond Beach church

A movie about the struggles of Latina garment workers will run Friday, November 6 at 7pm at the Richmond Beach Congregational Church.

The film, called “Made in L.A.” traces the transformation of three Latina garment workers who decide they must resist the situation that stems from global economic change.

Sponsors say that the movie “provides an insider’s view into both the struggles of recent immigrants and into the organizing process itself, the enthusiasm, discouragement, hard-won victories and ultimate self-empowerment.”

The free movie is scheduled for the Lena Voreis Room, off the upper parking lot of the church at the corner of NW Richmond Beach Road and 15th Ave NW (1512 195th Ave NW) in Shoreline.
