Stacia Marcum - Maquilapolis - Week 5

Things that I resonated with:

1. The women and children's living conditions 
2. The shot of the factory's waste water that was released during the rain
3. The corruption in the government - how high up it is
4. What is worse? Sinning to get paid? or paying to sin?

Tactics/Strategies:

1. The women choosing to use local representation in their first case rather than a government appointed lawyer
2. The gathering of workers to get the PROFEPA rep to travel to them and address their concerns

The gathering/rallying of people was essential to all of their successes - Success meaning to cause fear in the big companies and/or getting the higher up officials to have a conversation with them.
