There is a new way we can expose the anti-women and anti-worker policies of Wal-Mart. Robert Greenwald, who produced "Outfoxed" about Fox News, is making a new film, WAL-MART: The High Cost of Low Price, which is scheduled to be released this November.

You yourself can view the film or even host a screening. The only way this film will get out to a mass audience is with your help and support. Unlike popular would-be blockbusters, this film will premiere in thousands of homes, churches, community centers and family businesses the week of Nov. 13, 2005.

"WAL-MART" promises to expose the mega-retailer in the same way that Greenwald's "Outfoxed" and "Uncovered" shed new light on Fox News and the Iraq War. Wal-Mart's practices are hurting U.S. women and our families, and NOW believes it is critical to our future that a vigorous debate on these issues take center stage in this nation. That's why NOW is partnering with Greenwald's Brave New Films and other progressive groups to help make and promote this movie. This movie is a perfect fit with NOW's 3-year campaign to expose Wal-Mart as a "Merchant of Shame" and as a retailer whose greed for profits comes at the expense of women and people of color.

More than a film, "WAL-MART" will be a catalyst to help us ignite a broader movement bringing fairness to the marketplace and ensuring a vibrant future for every family -- not just the Walton family. This is a unique opportunity to unite people across the political spectrum -- from family business owners, to teachers, to neighborhood activists.

NOW is sponsoring screenings that week, on Thursday Nov 17 and during the day on Sunday, Nov. 20. Contact Gailya at 539-7702 for more details. If you are interested in hosting a screening on that day (or just interested in general), please sign up at the web site. You don't need to have a location for your screening -- we'll follow up closer to the date with helpful materials to make your screening a success.
