But do they consider who has made their sneakers? <strong>Jim Keady<\/strong>, director of Educating for Justice, spent one month in an Indonesian slum living with Nike factory workers on $1.25 a day, a typical living wage paid to these workers. In this presentation, Keady shares his stories and his decade-long effort to end sweatshop abuses, while informing audience members how they can get involved and join this fight for justice.
