Produced by Brock Lile of ILWU Local 21.
A little history of the ILWU and the epic struggle that took place in Longview, Washington with ILWU Local 21 and the multi-national grain corporation, EGT. From Wisconsin to Occupy, this battle took place during a nation-wide social uprising. This was a fight for unions and the working class, against corporate greed and control.
