In celebration of CapFest 2015: Productive Forces, The UGA Global Capitalism Initiative is presenting four films exploring the relationship between labor and capitalism for workers around the world. The month-long series begins with Bread & Roses, a drama that follows poorly paid janitorial workers in Los Angeles as they fight for the right to unionize. Dr. Patricia Richards, associate professor of sociology and women’s studies at UGA, will introduce the film and moderate a Q&A afterward. The series will continue with Modern Times on Jan. 15, The Organizer on Jan. 22 and Last Train Home on Jan. 29.
