Based on the book Brave girl by Michelle Markel.
Includes: About the garment industry.
Narrated by Lesa Lockford.
When Clara arrived in America, she didn't know that young women had to go to work and grow up fast. But that didn't stop Clara. She went to night school and helped her family by sewing in a factory. She never accepted that girls should be treated poorly with low pay, so she led the largest walkout of women workers the country had seen. She learned that everyone deserved a fair chance, to stand and fight for what she wanted, and, most importantly, that she could do anything she put her mind to.
DVD, widescreen.
Contents: Brave girl.
