made in L.A part 4

made in L.A 3

1. If it were up to you to make the decision, would you let the sweatshop workers become legal U.S. citizens? Why or why not?

i think yes because the people that work in sweatshops have the right to be legal U.S citizens because they work.

2. Describe a moment in from parts 1, 2, or 3 of this movie that you found particularly memorable? Why?

in part 1 when the lady says when ever she wants to remember about her children she watches the video of her family.

3. By the end of part 3, the protestors seem to be giving up hope. If you were able to speak to the group, what would you say to them to inspire them to keep going?

i would tell them not to give up because they never know if they end up winning.

Made In L.A

1. How is the life of sweatshop workers in L.A. the same as those in Indonesia? How is it different?

the life of sweatshop workers in L.A are the same in indonesia is that they don't even get paid minimum wage they work for like 8 hours and only get paid like $25. the way that sweatshops in L.A are different from the ones in indonesia is that in sweatshops in L.A have immigrants working for the and in Indonesia they have kids working for them.

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?

the reason that poor immigrants work at sweatshops is because most of them don't have working papers.

3. Predict what’s going to happen by the end of this movie

what i think that is going to happen at the end of the movie is that the immigrants are going to get their working papers and get a good job.

behind the swoosh part 2

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

nike workers in indonesia make about a $1.25 each day.

2. What is life like for Indonesian Nike workers at home?

life is difficult for indonesian nike workers at home because the work a lot and bearly make any money so its hard for them to buy things.

3. Why won’t Nike talk to Jim or Leslie or let them visit the shoe factory?

i think the reason that nike dose not want them to visit because they don't want people to know the way they work and make the children work for them.

Behind the swoosh

1. What does it mean to “make a decent living”? What should you be able to afford to buy?

What i think it means to make a decent living is to have a nice life not perfect and not bad. What people should be able to buy is food and clothes.

2. Where do your sneakers come from? Who makes them?

Sneaker come from sweatshops and kids make them.

3. What is a sweatshop (take a guess, even if you have no idea)?

A sweatshop i am quesing is a place were the make children for for them and make things like sneakers

water bottles

1)I think tap water is better cleaner and tasteir than bottled water because bottled water is more dirty because they melt the plastic and they don't clean it

2)the way they make bottles for bottled water is in a factory that makes bottles

3)by putting water in your own bottle that you clean

Gaming Addiction

I think the reason that most people get addicted to gaming is because they have nothing to do. I think if they go outside once in a while that they wont be so addicted.


5 ways to tell that your addicted to gaming

1) that you keep on playing non stop
2) all you think about is games
3) when you don't go to sleep just play games
4) when you don't eat just to play games
5) when you don't go outside anymore just to play games

gaming adiction

I think the reason cause kids become adictied to gaming is because their parents let them be on their consel so much. i think parents should have a time that their children stop using the games. parents should let their kids go out side more so the dont get adicted.
