The Battle Of Local 5668 Synopsis
The Battle of Local 5668 is the story of 1700 union workers who took on a company that wanted to replace them, a management that wanted to starve them and a billionaire fugitive who wanted to break them. The Battle of Local 5668 is an in depth, straight journalistic account told by the men and women who were directly involved in the dispute. Even with 10 years reflection, the passion and tenacity of the steelworkers in the small town of Ravenswood, West Virginia still shocks and amazes.
