Nike in Honduras: workers speak out
Gina Caro and Loli Urquia worked at Hugger de Honduras and Vision Tex, two plants in Honduras that made sportswear for Nike. Then workers in the plants decided to unionize, and the plants abruptly shut down, robbing the workers of severance pay they were legally entitled to as well as their jobs. Gina and Loli talk about their struggle to hold Nike accountable. John Walsh and Peter Shapiro co-host.

Nike in Honduras
Excellent! These heroic and eloquent women deserve to be held up as role models for all of us. I'm going to try to put this audio file on NIKE's website. Thanks, great program.
