Working Class Housing In Early Twentieth Century Britain: Central And Local State Solutions
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Urban blight was alive and well for the working class population in early twentieth century Britain. With rigid social structure the overwhelming force behind housing populations, Britain's central and local states found themselves with a significant problem on their hands. The squalid conditions that many people called home were slowly but surely becoming the focus of significant strife; as such, a solution had to be found before the working class would rebel any further. Working class housing at the turn-of-the-century Britain reflected a conspicuous absence of civilized surroundings, with structures so decrepit and unappealing that those who were relegated to such living quarters were thought of as social fringe. In order to address this ever-mounting problem, Britain's central and local states took aim and applied the notion of modernism as a means by which to appease the working class. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

“Salt of the Earth” (1954) -- More than a Blacklisted Film
[ send me this paper ]
This
5 page report discusses the 1954 blacklisted movie that tells the
story of a strike among Hispanic mine workers at the Empire Zinc
Corporation in New Mexico. A Mexican American family finds
itself in the middle of the bitterness caused by the strike. As a
political statement, it demonstrated the inter-connection that
exists between working class, feminist, environmental and Latino
concerns, and yet it was denounced for its “communist overtones”
and banned from the public until the late 1960s. The movies
writers, producer, and director had all been blacklisted and the
star, the Mexican actress Rosaura Revueltas, was deported. No
additional sources.
