American Jobs
Jobs are moving to low-wage countries. Is our way of life at stake?
American Jobs began as a personal exploration of the "jobless recovery." Disturbed by the news that three million manufacturing jobs had disappeared between 2000 and 2004, Greg Spotts hit the road with a video camera to see the damage for himself.
During the first six months of 2004, Spotts visited nineteen cities and towns during production of this entirely self-funded film. He saw firsthand the permanent, structural changes confronting America´s blue- and white-collar families as multinational corporations take advantage of "global sourcing" to hire the lowest-wage labor.
The result of 80 hours of interviews, "American Jobs" explores the impact of low-wage foreign competition on America´s workers, families and communities.
From the textile mills of North Carolina to the Software hub of Seattle, displaced workers share their stories and their concern for America´s future.
