September 7 ~ 9pm at Max's Place (109 W. 7th Street)
This benefit will help to send a truck load of medicines to the Mexician Maquiladora workers. Maquila plants preceded the passage of the North American Free Trade Agreement. Raw materials from the U.S. are shipped to Mexico for assembly. The finished goods are returned to
the U.S. with little or no import tariffs or duties. The Maquiladora working conditions are "sweat shops" that pay starvation wages. Maquiladora workers are unable to afford the luxury of many medicines. For more information see the Coalition for Justice in the Maquiladoras:
