Full Description

In 1990 one of Texas's Levis Strauss factories closed leaving behind hundreds of workers, mostly women, without their livelihood.  To many, it was the only job they ever had.  From their loss, a support group was born.  A group that later became a center to empower women in San Antonio, Texas through education, social work and community activism.


"Las Mujeres de Fuerza Unida" , The Women of Fuerza Unida, is part of "Perfiles" a series of stories available in English and Spanish.  Human interest pieces about Latinos in the United States, of all walks of life, their challenges and triumphs.  Produced and directed by Patricio Espinoza.  Coming soon: the story of Spanish language media in the U.S
