My Aquarium

1. How is the life of sweatshop workers in L.A. the same as those in Indonesia? How is it different?The sweatshop gets more money then from the indonesia.

2. Why is it that poor immigrants (newcomers) end up working at sweatshops? Why don’t they work as lawyers or doctors or at Mcdonalds? Some of them did not go to school and they had kids really young.

3. Predict what’s going to happen by the end of this movie. I think they are not going to win the lawsuit.

Dear, Nike 

       

   Hello my name is Leslie Toro and I am 13 years old . I am in the 7th grade. I do not think it is rite for the Indonesian should be working 12 hours and they get 1.25 for me that is torture. they have to go though so much I do not think it is rite they do not get to see there kids , and they have to sleep on a little sleeping bag. I think they should not be going though a lot .

1. How much do Nike workers make in Indonesia each day? How many hours a day do they work? $1.25 they work 12 hour

2. What is life like for Indonesian Nike workers at home? It is really hard because they have not that much time to see there kids and the live in a box with thin sheet to sleep on.

3. Why won’t Nike talk to Jim or Leslie or let them visit the shoe factory? they do not what to be exposed.

1. What does it mean to “make a decent living”? What should you be able to afford to buy? It means to have a home, food and clothing we should have money to buy food the rent and clothing.

2. Where do your sneakers come from? Who makes them? I get my sneakers at the store and the store get it from the factor.

3. What is a sweatshop (take a guess, even if you have no idea)?I do not know.
