Mickey Mouse Goes to Haiti, by the National Labor Committee, 275 7th Ave., 15th floor, New York, NY 10001. 212-242-3002. Approximately 20 minutes. Depictions of working and living conditions of Disney workers in Haiti. Responds effectively to the argument that it's OK to pay workers in poor countries less because it costs less to live. (The National Labor Committee also distributes "Zoned for Slavery," focusing on conditions for GAP sweatshop workers in Central America, which I have not seen, but which has gotten excellent reviews from other teachers. It includes extensive interviews with young workers and family members who describe the impact sweatshop labor has on their lives.)
