Organizing For Justice Against Silver Palace
Description
In a documentary-style video, the Chinese Staff and Workers' Association (CSWA) showcases striking Asian workers at the Silver Palace Restaurant in Chinatown. The workers organized into a union, but those who had joined were fired and it was not recognized by management. The fired workers picketed the restaurant. This video contains footage from those protests and interviews with Chinese-Americans connected to the struggle. Footage and interviews feature both Chinese and English.
