Workers' Right Blog (Assessment)

      Assessment

    The argument given in the article I read was that where company owners were charged of homicide. The reason why they were charged of homicide is because a 112 workers were killed in a fire that destroyed the factory because they were being held back by their managers. I think this issue is incredulous and I can't believe people would could have prevented all those deaths just watched it happen. What was so upsetting is this didn't happen years ago it was just in 2012 and these were workers in an unsafe place and lost their lives.
     The argument of the poem "Sweatshop" was to show how much time of her life this job took to still have almost nothing no feelings, thoughts, or understanding because the worked consumed her. The worker said "I have no thoughts, feelings, or understanding" another example is "I don't know, I don't know!" meaning that she has become a part of her job. Also another example would be "It seems to me that the pendulum urges me: "Work, work, work a lot!” showing that that is all she seems to worry about. The poem was different then reading the article because it went more in depth and had more feeling in it you could almost feel the person's pain. I think the poem did affect the way I understood it because of how it was written you need read it more or slowly to understand what the person means.
