Salt of the Earth Page #3

Synopsis: Based on an actual strike against the Empire Zinc Mine in New Mexico, the film deals with the prejudice against the Mexican-American workers, who struck to attain wage parity with Anglo workers in other mines and to be treated with dignity by the bosses. In the end, the greatest victory for the workers and their families is the realization that prejudice and poor treatment are conditions that are not always imposed by outside forces.

Luis reminded me.

00:
13: 59.080 - 00: 14: 02.480

Never had such a nice holiday

00:
14: 05.960 - 00: 14: 08.960

It was a song that filled my being ...

00:
14: 09.120 - 00: 14: 12,400

and mitigated the harshness of everyday work

00:
14: 13,400 - 00: 14: 15,640

One, two three.

00:
14: 26.480 - 00: 14: 29.320

00:
14: 31.720 - 00: 14: 33.720

That night I could not dance ...

00:
14: 33,920 - 00: 14: 35,800

... because of my state ...

00:
14: 35.960 - 00: 14: 39.160

... but I was jealous when he danced with the other

00:
14: 39,320 - 00: 14: 42.960

It was wonderful to see you smile again

00:
14: 47.640 - 00: 14: 50.720

00:
14: 53.160 - 00: 14: 55,880

We were chatting

00:
14: 56.040 - 00: 14: 58.240

Formed a kind of delegation

00:
14: 58,680 - 00: 15: 01.280

They spoke of health facilities

00:
15: 01.680 - 00: 15: 05.040

sinks with hot water

00:
15: 05.200 - 00: 15: 06.920
