Selling Women Short: The Landmark Battle for Workers Rights at Wal-Mart
by Liza Featherstone
Women workers at Wal-Mart stores across the country filed a class-action suit against the
company for sex discrimination in promotions, pay and job assignments. Dukes v. Wal-Mart Stores
is potentially the largest class-action suit in history, representing 1.6 million past and present women
employees. Featherstone's interviews with the plaintiffs reveal an entrenched good ol' boy network at
the company, where highly qualified women are routinely passed over for promotions that are given
to men with less experience
.
Judy Gorman sings songs from her new CD - The Rising of Us All
18 songs peace & justice, work & women, struggle and celebration.
