00:
20: 36.960 - 00: 20: 39.880

"We want health,

non-discrimination. "

00:
20: 58.160 - 00: 21: 01.160

That night, there was a

union meeting ...

00:
21: 01.480 - 00: 21: 03.720

... to give official appearance

00:
21: 04.720 - 00: 21: 06.560

Did not take long.

00:
21: 06.880 - 00: 21: 10,680

The strike was approved

by 93 votes to 5.

00:
21: 11,080 - 00: 21: 14,920

Teresa said it was

the time to introduce.

00:
21: 15,560 - 00: 21: 17,200

I did not want.

00:
21: 17,400 - 00: 21: 19,960

Never been in a

union meeting.

00:
21: 20,320 - 00: 21: 23,800

But others said:

"If you are one, we all."

00:
21: 33,240 - 00: 21: 36,160

When we arrived, the meeting

I was about to end

00:
21: 36.560 - 00: 21: 38,960

Charlie Vidal outlined the situation.

00:
21: 39,480 - 00: 21: 42.280

Said the strike

had one goal.

00:
21: 42.480 - 00: 21: 44.040

Equality.

00:
21: 44,200 - 00: 21: 46,600

But employers do anything ...

00:
21: 46.760 - 00: 21: 49,440

... to avoid them to get equality.

00:
21: 54.280 - 00: 21: 56.640

Try to divide workers ...

00:
21: 56,800 - 00: 21: 59.080

... between Anglos and Mexican-Americans.

00:
22: 00.480 - 00: 22: 04.280

Who sold it to his brother

would be rewarded.

00:
22: 30,520 - 00: 22: 33,280

Women ye

make a statement ...

00:
22: 36.080 - 00: 22: 37,960

It is not a statement

00:
22: 38.120 - 00: 22: 40.280

- Women want ...

- Higher!

00:
22: 40.440 - 00: 22: 43.040

Consuelo, speaking from the podium

00:
22: 57.080 - 00: 23: 00.080

Women have spoken

sanitary facilities.

00:
23: 00.360 - 00: 23: 03.280

If you want to achieve equality ...

00:
23: 03.800 - 00: 23: 05.240

... as you say, ...

00:
23: 05.400 - 00: 23: 07.960

... you should ask

the same equality ...

00:
23: 08.120 - 00: 23: 10,080

... sanitary facilities

00:
23: 12,280 - 00: 23: 15,640

Reivindicadlo also

the strike.

00:
23: 16,960 - 00: 23: 18,800

We have also thought ...

00:
23: 18,960 - 00: 23: 22,040

... we could create a

female auxiliary section.

00:
23: 23,720 - 00: 23: 26,120

We want to help in any way possible.

00:
23: 38.720 - 00: 23: 41.120

I think I speak on behalf

of my colleagues ...

00:
23: 41,280 - 00: 23: 45,000

... to thank the women

offering us their help, ...

00:
23: 45,200 - 00: 23: 49,440

but it's late and I suggest postponing the issue.

00:
23: 49,600 - 00: 23: 52.040

The board will accept a

motion to adjourn.

00:
23: 52,200 - 00: 23: 53.920

- I presented it.

- The seconded.

00:
23: 54.080 - 00: 23: 55,800

Who is in favor?

00:
23: 56.720 - 00: 23: 58,200

Who is against?

00:
23: 58,360 - 00: 23: 59.720

Approved.

00:
24: 10,000 - 00: 24: 11,800

You need to plan

00:
24: 12,560 - 00: 24: 16,120

Why did not you defended?

You are worse than others.

00:
24: 16,320 - 00: 24: 19,520

Teresa, can not be forced

Therefore the situation.

00:
24: 19,680 - 00: 24: 22,800

Ye you force us to accept

unfair conditions.

00:
24: 22,960 - 00: 24: 25,280

Why not consult me?

It was embarrassing!

00:
24: 25.440 - 00: 24: 27,720

At least you did not ridicule

as Consuelo.

00:
24: 27.880 - 00: 24: 32.480

It's not a bad idea;

should demand better health.

00:
24: 32,640 - 00: 24: 35.960

- But honey ...!

- Put a notice on the door ...

00:
24: 36,200 - 00: 24: 39.080

"No dogs allowed

or women. "

00:
24: 47,200 - 00: 24: 50.720

"We want equality

with other miners. "

00:
25: 11,800 - 00: 25: 14,480

"We are guided by the union."

"Less talk and more money."

00:
25: 14,680 - 00: 25: 18,680

So it all started,

and other strikes.

00:
25: 18,920 - 00: 25: 21,480

The company said

not negotiate ...

00:
25: 21.640 - 00: 25: 24,200

... until the workers

back to work.

00:
25: 24,360 - 00: 25: 28,080

But the ploy

will not work for them.

00:
25: 30.240 - 00: 25: 34,600

They hired strikebreakers

of other peoples.

00:
25: 39.880 - 00: 25: 42.760

But his mind was cooled ...

00:
25: 42.920 - 00: 25: 44,800

... when they saw the size of the picket.

00:
25: 49.360 - 00: 25: 51.960

The sheriff and his men

They were always there ...

00:
25: 52.120 - 00: 25: 54.360

... wearing their weapons.

00:
25: 55.240 - 00: 25: 57.520

But men just marched ...

00:
25: 57,800 - 00: 25: 59.360

... day after day ...

00:
25: 59.640 - 00: 26: 01.400

... week after week.

00:
26: 02.640 - 00: 26: 06.640

At first, women

we stayed at home.

00:
26: 07.440 - 00: 26: 10,640

The union brought food

We tried and we ...

00:
26: 10,800 - 00: 26: 13,240

... feed our families.

00:
26: 14,040 - 00: 26: 17,200

One morning mrs. Salazar

He went to the picket line.

00:
26: 17,960 - 00: 26: 21,200

Her husband had died in a

strike for many years.

00:
26: 21,480 - 00: 26: 23,440

She wanted to be there.

00:
26: 26,320 - 00: 26: 28.680

No one remembers how it happened.

00:
26: 28,880 - 00: 26: 32.120

One day Mrs. Salazar

he joined the march.

00:
26: 32,280 - 00: 26: 34,800

And it was not separated from them.

00:
26: 38,320 - 00: 26: 42,120

Several women began

bring coffee to their husbands ...

00:
26: 42.280 - 00: 26: 45.280

... and tacos, because

Men have just ...

00:
26: 45.440 - 00: 26: 48.280

... tired and hungry

acting on picket.

00:
26: 51.880 - 00: 26: 54,480

It was then that

the union decided ...

00:
26: 54.640 - 00: 26: 57.960

... that should be set

a female auxiliary section.

00:
26: 59.360 - 00: 27: 01.800

At first I did not go with them.

00:
27: 02.120 - 00: 27: 03.720

Soon give birth.

00:
27: 03.880 - 00: 27: 06.480

In addition to Ramn did not like.

00:
27: 09.200 - 00: 27: 11,720

But Ramon loves

good coffee ...

00:
27: 11,960 - 00: 27: 14,360

... and swore that of

other women appeared ...

00:
27: 14,520 - 00: 27: 16,320

... dregs of zinc.

00:
27: 19,640 - 00: 27: 22.560

So, one day I made the coffee.

00:
27: 29.920 - 00: 27: 31.720

"They did not move."

00:
27: 31.880 - 00: 27: 34.160

"Solidarity with the miners."

00:
27: 49.240 - 00: 27: 51,360

Three days ago I do not see him

00:
27: 51.760 - 00: 27: 53,800

Ramon, listen to this.

00:
27: 54,000 - 00: 27: 57.360

The foreman gave me last night

me shift manager ...

00:
27: 57.520 - 00: 28: 00.240

... if I am the first

returning to work.

00:
28: 00.400 - 00: 28: 03.440

"Jenkins, why are you doing

For these Reds?

00:
28: 03.600 - 00: 28: 06.600

I replied that the Reds

I like every day.

00:
28: 11,280 - 00: 28: 13,280

Two scabs managed to pass

00:
28: 13,440 - 00: 28: 15.480

- We stopped to rest.

- Les ye searched?

00:
28: 15,640 - 00: 28: 17,320

They were Anglos other peoples

00:
28: 17,480 - 00: 28: 20,480

But they were not miners,

they would not know the zinc.

00:
28: 20,640 - 00: 28: 22.640

Good job.

Go to tomer coffee.

00:
28: 22,800 - 00: 28: 24,960

Ramon comes the supervisor.

00:
28: 42.680 - 00: 28: 44.920

- Good Morning

00:
28: 45.080 - 00: 28: 47.480

00:
28: 47.640 - 00: 28: 49.640
