  “How 1,000 Latina workers in Watsonville, California won an 18-month long strike . . . an inspiring tale” (Mae M. Ngai, author of Impossible Subjects and The Lucky Ones)   On September 9, 1985, a predominately Mexican group of one thousand women workers in Watsonville, California, the “frozen food capital of the world,” were forced out on strike in response to an attempt by Watsonville Canning owner Mort Console to break their union.   They returned to work eighteen months later. Not one had crossed the picket line. A moribund union has been revitalized, and Watsonville’s Latino majority emerged as a major force in local politics.   At a time when organized labor was in headlong retreat, the Watsonville Canning strike was a dramatic show of the power of women workers, whose struggle became a rallying point for the Chicano movement.   Apart from its sheer drama, the strikers’ story illuminates the challenges facing a group of ordinary working people who waged a protracted and ultimately successful struggle against seemingly insurmountable odds.

  With Exposing Financial Abuse: When Money Is a Weapon, you will be given the opportunity to pull the curtain back and see into the lives of those who have been financially harmed by someone close to them. Being able to take a closer look at this hidden world is a unique gift that cannot be taken lightly or without honor for those who have chosen to allow us to peek into the most personal aspects of their lives. 
  Test yourself. How would you describe financial abuse? It is quietly happening all around us and is hidden within our neighborhoods and communities. You probably know someone who lives within a financially abusive household and you don't even know it. 
  What is financial abuse? 
  Has your spouse or parent taken out lines of credit in your name without your consent? 
  Does your ex-spouse suddenly stop paying child support as a means of furthering their abuse and control over your life? 
  Has your partner moved money from your joint account to a secret individual account without your prior knowledge or consent? 
  Do your parents use financial gifts as an open door to demand future compliance on your part? 
  Are you blamed for creating financial stress, but are not the one who overspends? 
  Did your ex-spouse hide his or her income from being included in the calculations for child and/or spousal support? 
  Have your religious leaders said that you must give to the church first, even if that means you cannot provide for your household's basic needs? 
  Do you carry the full burden of making enough money for your household because your partner refuses to maintain steady employment?
