Based on actual events; New Mexico’s Empire Zinc mine, Mexican-American workers protest the unsafe work conditions and unequal treatment & wages compared to their Anglo counterparts.
This film was made by blacklisted film-makers in retaliation for being blacklisted. They reasoned that since they weren't allowed to work in Hollywood, they might as well make a film to fit the "crime" for which they had been accused of by the Un-American House Activities Committee. But this film was first released in 2014!

Thank you for sharing this movie. It doesn’t matter what ethnic background you come from, I know very well, all too well, about this type of treatment for miners. I lived through it. My father was a miner, but not in New Mexico, he was an immigrant from Europe. He worked in the mining industry in a corrupt mining town..(I won’t mention the name, because of repercussions from local governments). My father joined a union for equality and safety for miners, the company was cutting corners for profit, and miners were paid very low wages. Many miners died during that time, not only in the mines, but elsewhere in town, due to safety issues that weren’t addressed; families barely had enough food to survive on, and lived in makeshift shanty shelters, being quickly put together and which were never warm enough for below freezing weather.
In its earlier years, before any union was formed, men were harassed or killed if they didn’t do what the company wanted done or objected to their demands. The mines themselves were unsafe to work in. One man, and I assume there were others, was hanged from a trestle for even trying to start a union. The miners rallied around him for better wages, safety concerns and better living conditions for their families. Many miners were killed and harassed because they refused to work the mines during any strikes and a miners union hall was dynamited and blew up killing many more miners. Women had to fend for themselves and for their children in order to survive the hardships of the conditions left behind after their husbands died either from the mines or from someone killing their husbands. Women were NOT allowed to work any job which a man was capable of working. It was taboo.
My father later joined the miners union, and the miners finally received the benefits they were looking for and better safety conditions in the mines. When my father retired from mining, he had 30 years into it, but that wasn’t enough insult to his lifetime working with that company. They had taken 20 years away from his record because of an accident he had when he broke his leg and needing the recovery time to heal from the injuries. When he went back to work, they considered him as a new man and gave him only 10 years with the company. My father never worked for anyone else and he had to hire a lawyer to get his years back. He did get his years back from working for that company, but also he didn’t live long enough to enjoy his full retirement, and died soon after retiring with Miners Con, a condition much like Black Lung which coal miners get from working in the coal mines. His lungs were filled with silica mine dust. In all his time working in those mines, he worked hard, working shifts others refused to work and he saved others from being killed or buried under the rubble from the collapsing mine shafts. He was a good man, teaching me much about the safety and the responsibilities for doing a job well done. My mother fought for her right to vote. I do miss him, and my mom very much. They taught me to be respectful, always showing and giving the dignity and respect towards others that they deserve. RIP …mom and dad, what you taught me, so much, made a difference in my life and this has stayed with me throughout the years. 👍❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
С уважением к Вам и Вашей семье. Счастья Вам и благополучия!

I am impressed with your story. I knew miners life was hard but I could not imagine that in America, the richest country in the world, people were so greedy to deny a decent pension and years worked to a human being. Please, think about writing those stories so people is aware of the real thing. Thanks for sharing and reinforcing my beliefs about justice and respect for the working class.
You should have written a book.🤔
what a hard report to read and to hear about the disgusting behavior of mine owners. I'm not even gonna watch the film to save my peace of mind.
No wonder this film was blacklisted. Cowardly government. The sacrifices that were made in order to get out from under these officials are inspiring.
Not really black listed. Just not shown in American movie houses. Private enterprise at its finest.
We need to get money out of politics and demand that the people we elect work for us not the corporations!

No, and Leave it to Beaver was a fantasy. It was not the way life was for most Americans.
@@katiejo1095 .... those filmmakers (went against the grain) to tell the truth :)
Right on!!!
Every American today should see this movie! It is brilliant! Not just about a miner's strike, but about people learning what unity is, and especially who the enemy is. It's not a white person or a brown person, an immigrant or a citizen, a Christian or a Muslim or a Jew, a man or a woman. And that is what the enemy does not want us to realize. Because once "the salt of the earth" unites, nothing can stop us from rising and winning. If only every person in the world could understand that, it would not be possible for a handful of people to grab everything, wield fear and force over workers and families, and leave most of the world with nothing. Also - as a work of art, this film is amazing. The "non-professional" cast was as good as the 'professional actors. A real credit to the director, Herbert Biberman, and his crew. "No, you can't fool me, I'm stickin' with the Union. We shall not be moved!"
Perfect comment..Love from Istanbul ❤
Well that's the irony of the film being made by blacklisted movie makers if you critize greed and capitalism at all they accuse you of communist propaganda.

Communism is a hoax, its just a lifestyle someone chooses. This is definitely a great movie, it's the truth how the elites exploit us.

We in the midwest were sprayed with radioactivity to later learn of its effects on humans... notice the rise of human cancers in this time period... also the food was sprayed... and even my grandmother said it is coming from our foods... she tome me this in 1954. True story... i was born in 1948.
I can believe it, when I moved here, it seemed like everyone themselves or someone they knew were dealing with cancer. So much of it out here.
Vote Kennedy! He sued Monsanto. The stuff I have learned even more about is crazy. He really cares about us.

What a great time to see this movie. We're losing 50 years of our most hard won rights all over the USA now. And they are not done yet.
These people weren't fighting for the right to kill their babies, men playing women's sports and mail in voter fraud ....they were the MAGA equivalent of that era. Bitter pill IK

This film opened in New York in 1954 and was reviewed at that time. The film itself was not banned, but it's true that very few theaters were willing to screen it until years later.
Fear of communists.

This film was shown quite often (with subtitles) in the former Yugoslavia , USSR and Cuba .
I remember watching it in Zagreb with my school class in 1967.
Propaganda against the American way of life? Yeah, in certain pockets of The U.S. and Canada, miners were treated very badly. A lot of them died of lung cancer when the mines they were working in proved to be contaminated with the uranium that the mine owners said was at a level too low to harm the miners. We lived in a mining town for nearly 4 years. We had a decent house that wasn't paid for, but far better than those shacks for sure from 1957 to 1960 (Elliot Lake, Ontario). A lot of the miners we knew would have died of lung cancer prematurely. My own father died at 71 of prostate cancer probably caused by asbestos on the pipes of the "boiler rooms" he work in from 1948 to 1984. 4 other guys in the heating plant where he was chief died of lung cancer in the next 10 years. I have idea how many others would have died since. Even if you are well paid and own a 4 bedroom, two storey house with a bathroom and a powder room and 2 cars and leave a good estate, you can die too young because of a exposure to a deadly substance like asbestos.
@@dinkster1729 It took decades for the mining companies in Australia to be bought before courts to answer accusations of neglect when whole towns were cut down with asbestosis ,even though the evidence was right in front off everyone. And what happened? the asbestos companies headquarters moved to the USA where the courts were on their side,before eventually moving to the Netherlands.
An excellent example of: "United We Stand! Divided We Fall!"
My mother talked to me about her being in a union she worked for a company on the sixty-nines,on a very low salary, she worked two shifts and on call. I never understand what she meant by union until watching this movie.
What a joke! He tells her she is "neglecting" her kids! HE is the one neglecting them. She is taking them everywhere she goes because HE won't
@fairmaiden6472, you still don't understand what's the story about, all you see is that "HE is the one neglecting them", henceforth, you are what's wrong with this generation of women. We don't need the type of today's women, who are bashing men any time they get the chance, saying "they don't need men". Sorry to bust your bubble, those women of generation of yesterday, show their men, compassion, and made them understand they were needed. But nooooo, you had to destroy the very essence of what a woman should do, and that is to back up her man. Only a strong woman of character and mind, can step forward and help her man. You were blind to the fact that the woman in the movie, was scared of what her husband would think of her, but her REAL friends, showed her that if they stick together and showed the men, that sometime, the women can strengthen their men, and help in dire situation.
People back in the era of this film had more trust and empathy for each other than people of today.

@@armidaayon2654 You' are so right. (Today tic toc and vulgar music is what matters to them.)

Fantastic film! Issues we still deal with, and will probably deal with forever. Problems between races, the role of women at home, and in the community, the dignity of human beings, respect for all people, fair treatment, etc. These are things people deal with all over the world. This movie is timeless.
...and greedy, corrupt, soulless corporations
The stuff about bottle feeding and formula sure dates this film. Today, we'd say, "Breast is best!" , although, I guess, because of no paid maternity leave in the U.S. usually, bottle-feeding is very prevalent.

Why do you ask such a question
In today’s world, info on how one can survive on cheap land, does exist. You can grow your own firewood, collect water and have ac and refrigeration on solar. You don’t need plumbing… everything composted. Grow your own food. You can still acquire some supplies or add some tech and such while getting there. But, a person doesn’t have to put up with volatile economies. Worst case scenario is they show up and kick you off the land. Which is possible.
The way things are developing in America it’s heading straight for an authoritarian state.
This was a good movie showing that together we stand and divided we fall! Thank God for those fearless women!
It's always just as God states - Always.
A story about truth, hope. Hardworking people and life.
Thanks to all who made this movie possible from investors to those sweeping the floor or cleaning up the bathrooms.
Amazing story amazing people

I work in an office and I respect the cleaning ladies and janitors more than any executives and managers.

Hoovervilles were a thing

Well hoovervilles were a part of america. google it@@dinkster1729
I was born when this Movie was made. Why are the same issues alive today. Humanity, America, hasn't learned much have We? Who can say they are Proud of it? How do the leaders sleep, when they waken to a nightmare of their own design? We are not sleeping with Our Eyes Wide Open! Give back what you have taken! Make Dreams Come True! Be Men & Women! Be Proud!
Oh yes, half of Americans are sleeping with their eyes wide open, supporting the creation of a fascist dictatorship. Stupid is as stupid does.
An incredible film, thanks. The non-professional cast would put most of todays professionals to shame!! Rosaura Revueltas was a brilliant leading lady and Juan Chacon got better as the film went on. The makers of this must have been at the top of their game to get such performances and Michael Wilson was such a talented writer.
❤awesome thanks for showing us all to stand up for what is right
...such a great example for the rest of the Latin people
Estos actores son mas creibles que los actuales. FELICITACIONES
In the early 1970s I showed this film to all the classes I taught at a community college in Flint, MI, a town that made labor history with the factory occupation strikes in the mid-1930s. The film's combination of class, race-ethnic, and gender oppression had many lessons for students. It was probably one of the first explicit movies discussing women's liberation. I believe the film was based on a strike in Silver City, NM in 1950-51 or thereabouts. And, yes, it got hardly any showings because it appeared during the repressive McCarthy era and the director was one of the Hollywood 10.
I showed it in classes too... but for studying class conflict...
Honestly, are women better off now?
It's not just women... it's all human beings... and the Earth. The film hits hard at the economics of extraction and exploitation. @@gwatts2745
This film is worth watching and discussing in schools and elsewhere. However, the current political control of education would stomp on this so hard it'd never ever be seen or heard of again.
This film was « iconic « in France when I was a child , in the Seventies…
At least in leftist minded population…

If people would stand together like this today, we could have taken our country back long ago.

I agree
Exactly
the government keeps the slaves divided by arguing democrates vs republicans. keep voting the same crowd back in and expecting a change. the real issue has always been rich vs. poor--the haves and the have nots.
Too weak, too greedy, too complacent
It’s to bad we can’t band together like that again to preserve our Constitutional rights.
What if we Unionize this Country???? The corp is bankrupt but continues to run...the corp seems to follow Acts and Constitution at the appellate and Higher court levels...we are the "employees" of this corporation...as citizens. We can Unionize as a Right. Why...to unite the citizens of Our Nation Under the Foundations that Made Our Nation...The Constitution as Originally written and Only as Ammended Legally Under the Constitution. However, Representatives Must be Held Accountable Locally by Members...with Strict and swift correction or penalty. Only Naturalized citizens can vote...all others deported immediately. Non participating citizens given choice to join later or remain under corporate control.
Then STRIKE the corporation...simply using the Constitution as it was originally written...the corporation then loses control, loses the money it uses to continue to remain (even though its bankrupt) and We then have Citizen control of the Constitution without bloodshed as well as unification of Purpose in Our Nation and Under the Constitution.
Main idea with fine details to be solidified.
God Bless.
OR
wait for the government to fix itself...you know, the good guys take control of the bad guys...remember, the good guys were there from the beginning.
God Bless
Wow, this was so good! I had no idea that the movies like this were not allowed to be shown. Thank you for sharing this. I loved the end when the other miners form the surrounding areas showed up.
Glad you enjoyed it! This movie seems to generate all sorts of opinions 😉
I see that most people here are aware of our preset situation of the conditions for people in our country. This film did a lot for me, I’m encouraged that the people will come together again to reestablish our freedoms, dignity, and quality of life. Thanks for showing this film!!!
I am from New Mexico and never even heard of this story before. Thanks for the upload.
For some reason you never heard of this film. Have you seen Milagro Beanfield Wars? I was an adult in a high school Spanish as a Second Language class years ago. The teacher asked me if I knew of any films that would interest her class. I would certainly recommend this one. No sex. Very little gratuitous violence. It's a good movie for an Spanish as a Second Language class except apparently our school board has outlawed politics in our schools. So, maybe, this movie would get this teacher in trouble today.

Unions definately have their role in democracy... but even the best unions and the best democracies are subject to corruption. Most big businesses are corrupt private enterprises in their infancy, and most governments as well . Thats my opinion, this is an excellent movie...!!!
That's right. The Constitution guarantees the right of free association with whoever we wish to have.
I agree
Sadly some unions became bigger than the businesses they were fighting thus the beginning of their decline. When they stopped representing the dues paying members they started losing credibility, voice of experience from a retired union member. One time we were on strike union held out for closed shop didn’t even tell us stewards that they had-agreed to no pay raises if would get union shop. New employees didn’t have to join the union but HAD to pay dues,so if you strike those people still worked.
Great movie thank you for sharing have never seen this before.
Those were some gutsy women. This was also a real education of what people went through for human rights.
Mexican ladies have fought shoulder to shoulder with their men since... forever. Do not mess with Mexicanas 😂😁
И до сих пор у людей нет прав
It's amazing that any of our ancestors survived a trip from Europe to the States. I have found ship manifests showing some of my ancestors who came over, and one of them gave birth during the trip. Another one or two caught an illness in mid travel and passed. I would not have wanted to live in that time where that was my only option to travel. May their souls rest in peace.
It's not about race. It's about rich vs poor. The poor are always treated poorly (no pun intended) by the rich regardless of race.
Thanks to Google for bringing this movie to my attention. The story went much deeper than I expected, with the role the women played in this movie. Fascinating how little has changed. Substitute 'protest' for 'strike' and we have the story of our times (remember the Canadian Freedom convoy of 2022?) That's the way to stand up to tyranny, with a united front and no violence. "together we can push everything with us". Inspiring.

Truth
You know their bank accounts were frozen so they could not feed their families, by trude au, right? Their trucks were seized. The mo n ey raised by others for them was stolen by googley wasn't it?
LOLOL! Protecting your fellow Canadians and other North Americans from a deadly contagious disease is not tyranny. It's the way to go. We have public healthcare in Canada. We aren't like the Americans who are willing to let people die en masse to make enormous profits for for profit hospitals and clinics. We had to shut the country down to keep vulnerable populations free from COVID-19 and its variants. We are not done yet with this disease. Get vaccinated as soon as the new vaccinations are available. COVID-19 can still kill or maim you or your loved ones or your neighbours, if you don't. And, no, you don't have the right to terrorize the capital of Canada by bringing your Big Wheels right up to Parliament Hill.
my dad and his entire family lived his exact same life!! So did MANY other families! One with ties now to my hometown who became empowered and BOUGHT the President of the companies house, donated it to the community for people to use for activities! I was able to meet this man, his family, shake his hand, tell him Thank You!! Another thing sad about this.. we are learning so much more about the dirty US Govt on freakin YT and NOT in our schools !! Disgusting !
Yeah! in Ontario, Canada, the government is negotiating with the teachers' unions. It doesn't want a strike because it wants to keep the children in school. LOLOL! What for? They can learn more about our society and our capitalist system by watching film on You Tube and by reading books in our public libraries. (We had the longest school closures of any jurisdiction in North American in the face of the threat from COVID-19. I think the students, if they had parents who tried to educate them, probably didn't miss much education. Libraries are awful in our schools and students don't have enough access to the internet.
I have been visited by Our Lady of Guadalupe three times she saved our lives by giving me a premonition. I was not religious. Now I'm a spiritual person who asks why do people hurt anything on this beautiful Earth? I have seen so much horror in all the countries I've lived in. From South to North America. Greed is such an evil thing. Good humble people work hard and foolish short sighted people exploit them. This destroys society for everyone. God bless the workers.

It was my great privilege to teach young Hispanic children in a huge school district. Their mothers brought them to school early and dressed them beautifully. They arrived early to pick them up always asking for extra homework. They wanted their children to excel. They also came after school to English classes for adults often bringing the grandmothers. Those mother's were a force to be reckoned with as many have found standing for many good principles. Much respect.
I agree, every Hispanic American immigrant I've ever met was hard working and decent. I'm glad to have them in this country.
@@dinarusso3320 These people were not immigrants. They all spoke good English and sometimes, spoke a bit of Spanish among themselves. The point is made in the film that the grandfather of one of the men owned the land on which the mine was now situated. These so-called "Mexicans"--it's really a slur, I think--are, in fact, Hispanic-Americans.
the radio on payments was a HUGE thing too..many in my family back in the day did payments , my dad's family so poor they had no radio!
I''m not sure my family was that poor, but my father always treated us like we were. I can remember my father using a balloon tire bike he bought second hand as our only means of transportation. When my mother became ill (Deep Vein Thrombosis) after the birth of her 4th heavy baby in less than 5 years, the guys at the mill took up a collection for our family about 1954. My father had saved up enough money to buy a car finally after 6 years of marriage. He didn't want to take the money because he was afraid the guys would think he'd spent the money on a used car! What a conundrum! I think he probably did take the money though. We would have needed it to pay for babysitters to replace my mother. My mother lived to nearly 96 and died in 2019 so she survived DVT when 4 other women in the town had died from a clot moving to their brain or their heart and killing them. Doctors were uninformed in those days--they recommended bed rest after giving birth and that is absolutely the worst thing you can recommend to a woman who has low blood pressure.
This movie was banned cause it was a great movie about Mexican immigrants together with organizing oppressed workers via unions and collective action.
I guess you missed the part in the beginning where the female narrator says that she and her family had always lived there since before the English came. Remember or realize that when Caesar Chavez got his United Farm Workers organized, they went to the Mexican border and beat up Mexicans trying to come in and work as scabs on farms. The Communist Party USA made up films like this during this time. It's a fiction, but everyone pretends its real. I lived in Slovenia for a few years in the late 90s. They loved to play this film and another called, "This is America," which was as extreme exaggeration of the South as possible. They made these films mostly for use in foreign countries to bash Capitalism and the U.S.

It wasn't. The people making the film were so they raised movie to make this film to rub the Hollywood moguls' faces in the dirt. It was the McCarthy era, right? So the American Congress used the threat of communism to keep progressive people in line and to eliminate unions.

Por el título, pensé en una película de Wim Wenders. Ignoro si hay relación entre ambas películas. Lo cierto es que esta se encuentra muy adelantada al tiempo de los movimientos sociales que tuvieron lugar más de una década después en Estados Unidos. Con su acercamiento a las demandas femeninas por un mundo más igualitario, sin duda es un rescate que sigue teniendo vigencia en todo el mundo. Gracias por poner a nuestro alcance un material fílmico digno de ser compartido con las nuevas generaciones de este siglo XXI. 👍🏼🇲🇽
Eso es lo que tiene el ser humano que tiene empatia con los demás y los que gobiernan lo saben y que no pueden quitarte esa libertad de cantar a los cuatro vientos las injusticias que provocan junto a los potentados, lo malo es que siempre está el divides y vencerás y ahí es dónde entran los esquiroles, las ratas que rompen o intentan romper el esfuerzo, el sacrificio y las ilusiones de los demás, no hagáis casos a los políticos, ni a los partidos por mucho que digan que trabajan para el pueblo, solo nos quieren para auparse y subir a la política para vivir de los réditos económicos y demás prebendas y beneficios, después les abandonan, pueblo libre = pueblo culto, pueblo ignorante = pueblo sometido

Ay ya lo encontré ! qué torpe soy , venía arriba .
¡Nunca olviden! ¡Enseñe a sus hijos la verdadera historia del racismo americano contra nuestro gran pueblo!
This is 2023 and this is what the people need to do now in order to keep some governments on the right track put them in their place bye stopping everything people need to get together more
I totally agree. We need to throw Bible verses to them. 🙏
I was just thinking, this was only 69 years ago. I'm 75. Now AI might make us obsolete. My hope lies in Jesus, The Christ. ✝️
We are the government there’s no entity called the government its made up of us. Usually things get bad because we have people don’t want get involved in our own system not to mention 90% of us have no clue how laws or anything else is even made much less enforced.
@@cherryvaleleatherock6900 yeah I think you’re pretty much doomed with that one

What a depressing movie don’t kid yourself -, this was never blacklisted, “ they ( the controllers), didn’t care you knew their truth., and they still don’t care today. Beyond sad
Extraordinary movie ! Thank you
for sharing it. This and the Grapes
of Wrath show the Truth of how
Bullying and Greed can only destroy
our Lives and Hopes if we Give up
and Give In to the Hatefulness and
Selfishness of those who Take from
Us All what they did not earn for
themselves but have to them of
our own sense of Fair humanity
and cooperation. Which they
did not comprehend to be Charity
of our blood , sweat , and tears.
They do not Humble themselves
to respect our goodness but degrade
us to be weak fools for them. How
Wrong they are who know not how
to be and don't want to be Fair.
Namaste . Carpe Diem.
Grapes of Wrath is one of the books the maga crowd wants to ban from school libraries. Sugar-coating and denying our past is a danger to our democracy.
Another great movie about a mine strike that I recommend is called Matewan. It is also a true story about a coal miner strike in West Virginia.
I saw this when I was 9 & I was mesmerized. My folks were union supporters & had no qualms about making sure their daughter had a proper education which
I wasn't getting in school. I thought this was wonderful and it pointed out the terrible conditions faced by working families. If you haven't seen it, see it here.
Why didn't the poster include the title?
It's in the opening of the film in any case. The Salt of the Earth.
@@dinkster1729 The title isn't in the opening of what is on my screen. Thanks for posting it.
Interesting movie. According to IMDB, this 1954 film was not shown in theaters for 11 years, until 1965.
Una muestra de lo que sufrieron y batallaron los mexicanos que se quedaron a vivir en EEUU después que esos territorios pasaron a dominio de ese país . Un reconocimiento y admiración a los que han luchado por los derechos de los hispanos en ese país y contra la discriminación
Un saludo!
SI PERO AL FINAL LOS MEJICOAMERICANOS AL FINAL SON MAS FELICES VIVIENDO EN LAS TIERRAS DEL TIO SAM... TANTO ES ASI QUE CADA AÑO MILES DE MEJICANOS QUIEREN IRSE A VIVIR A US.... O HAS VISTO GRINGOS QUERIENDOSE IR DE US A VIVIR A MEJICO???.. 😅😅😅😅
Vraiment bon film! J'ai juste pas été capable d'aller dormir avant la fin😅un film plein d'espoir! Qu'il faut se souvenir,se soutenir car nous sommes plus fort que ceux qui veulent nous dirigé et nous réduire a l'esclavage
I love how this shows women’s roles in labour movements
Oh Got ! I from BRAZIL; you is comunist
My uncles and great grandfathers were miners in Kentucky. It doesn't matter the color of your skin, if you're the poor folk, the common folk.
Real people you can't find anymore nowadays. Great blessings and huge respect upon them!

We need this example today more than ever! United we stand, devided we fall!❤
Es una película que narra la lucha de obreros y trabajadores por causa justas mejores condiciones de trabajo ante los grandes bloques economicos empresariales .

Je connais ce film depuis des années. C'est une histoire vraie qui relate le soulèvement des mineurs mexicains en 1948. Une grève sans précédent remportée haut la main grâce aux femmes, qui nous apprends que l'union fait la force et que l'on peut vaincre les lobbys avec du courage, de la détermination et une volonté de fer. Une époque révolue. Où sont passées , aujourd'hui , les dames de fer d'hier ?
Same place the iron men have gone, I reckon.😂
aux meme endroit que les supers hommes
Ninguém quer mais ser dama de ferro. Elas querem hoje serem primeira-damas.
Увы
On est devenu des moutons
Thank you for this movie at this time. It shows us the only way to beat the global elite: by standing together as the 99% which we are.
Absolutely
The majority are against the global elite
It't time to unite us all
Как ты права❤

New Mexico has a predominantly (historically) Spanish background but yes NM is a border state and does have some Mexican influence. Spanish American miners is more accurate. Great film in it's message BTW!
Yes! Calling them Mexicans when they are, in fact, Americans was a way of denigrating them in New Mexico, I'm sure. The filmmakers were aware of that, I'm sure.
Really enjoyed this Movie, The Strength the people involved in their fight for Equality and Equity, was astounding!
A bit of a fairy tale don't you think?
@McEveley1, what are you talking about "Equity"?, you what's wrong with the problem in all the countries acting like a bafoon. I hate that word "Equity", because I am almost sure that you view it as, the right to all things, without paying for it. No one own anyone a living.
Gran película!!! Me encanta que la gente luche por su bienestar y me ha encantado que por una vez, los gringos no sean los buenos.
Ojalá los estados que antes pertenecian a Mexico, vielvan a ser mexicanos.
Nunca entenderé como un pais con una población hispana tan grande, siempre esté gobernado por dos partidos anglosajones que se van alternando, pero que no permiten que los hispanos tengan su representación en el gobierno de "SU" nación, en proporción a su población.
Pero qué carajo!!!
Que son mayoría en muchos estados y, tienen que ir mendigando en lo que hace poco mas de un siglo, era su tierra y la de sus antepasados.
VIVA MEXICO CABRONES !!!
Los culpables son los gobernantes de México que se la pasan robando a nuestro mismo País y el resultado es migrar al norte, los gringos no son los más culpables...Los de toda la culpa son los ratas gobernantes de México, si ellos no aman a su propio País y su gente, cómo esperan que los amen otros ?
Manuelangel4102 . Enterate bien de la historia mexicana. Tu gobierno Mexicano ofreció mas de una vez a USA que se adueñaran de Mexico.
De lo que dices que en USA ha habido solo 2 partidos politicos , te pregunto : cuantos partidos ha tenido Mexico? Les ha funcionado mejor ? En Mexico tubieron el mismo partido por casi 80 años ( Obrador vino a quitarles lo invicto al PRI ( en las 2 ocasiones que votaron por partido PAN , PRI y PAN se fundieron en uno).
No te vayas muy lejos , los verdaderos culpables de la perdida del territorio de Mex fué el gob vende patria de la PRIdictadura perfecta.
Dime como han tratado al pueblo indígena ?
Cabrones todos los traficantes de mexico.y todas sus maleficas y asesinas bandas delictuales.
VIVA!!!!!
O Mexico perdeu o Texas na guerra, quando SAM HOUSTON venceu liderando os E.U.A.
Esses bebedores de tequila perderam e tiveram que entregar o TEXAS, salve SAM HOUSTON
Would like to salute the persons who conceptualized, directed, produced and financed this great movie and to all those as well who acted in.
I am not a commie but not a dracula too.
Thanks a lot for the film.
Mon Papa était mineur en France il mourrut d'un cancer des poumons, il avait de la silicose. Ma maman devait toucher sa retraite (elle était mère au foyer). Elle n'a pratiquement rien reçu car ses messieurs en col blanc ont considéré que son cancer était le résultat du tabagisme (hélas il fumait) et non de la silicose. Maman à 50 ans a trouvé un emploi pour elle et mon petit frère (il avait 10 ans). J'ai beaucoup de respect pour les mineurs. Cela s'est passé dans les années 70. Il y a eu beaucoup d'injustice et j'ai un grand respect pour les gueules noires (nom donné aux mineurs dans la région où j'ai grandi).
Brother of my father was miner in France in early 70is,not working there long time,he back in our homeland after 5 years,he died from cancer in 87..My father work near 50years,first in homeland,than in Germany,Poland etc and he was a high specialist in his job,but communist in our country newer give a s..t about people like him,he was newer in comunist partie and for that he lost first job in 80is and worked for biggest train factory in europe,have 62 inovations,but still they fired him and more other mans like him.
After ww2 people become a slaves of they own goverments.
Vous lire me rend triste. Il y a eu une très grande injustice envers ces hommes qui ont travaillé très dur. J'ai toujours été très fière de mon Papa. Je le suis encore. Où est-ce que votre oncle à travaillé en France. C'était certainement le charbon. Mon Papa lui a travaillé dans les mines de fer. Et où travaillait votre Papa en Allemagne ? Je vis actuellement en Allemagne. Nous pouvons être très fiers. Nous vivions dans l'angoisse car il y avait beaucoup d'accidents graves.
❤😊❤ kár hogy nincsen magyarul de megnézem ,legalább tanulom a nyelvet hátha egyszer megértem ! Köszönöm , látom szuper filmek vannak feltöltve itt ! ❤
The title of this movie is “Salt of the Earth”.
“Based on an actual strike against the Empire Zinc Mine in New Mexico, the film deals with the prejudice against the Mexican-American workers, who struck to attain wage parity with Anglo workers in other mines and to be treated with dignity by the bosses. “
Obviously communism 😅
😮😮😮
There are no zinc mines in communism
Crush the Workers.
It's the American Dream!
Yeah, but who was shocked to hear she was pregnant; AGAIN...
White communism

I saw this movie twice when it was in black and white way before 2014. Late 70's and 90's on television.
NPR? It wasn't blacklisted. Iit was merely not shown in cinemas in the U.S. in 1954. The capitalists censored it.
Un grand merci pour ce superbe film sur la lutte ouvrière aux États-Unis et l'acharnement du patronat à refuser la moindre concession à leurs travailleurs !
La solidarité, c'est ce qui nous manque tellement. Quel bel exemple.
Great movie but terrible times. Things havent changed much though. Corporations dont pay much and small in benefits. So even today it is still about greed
A very moving picture with remarkable actors. The eternal story of the strong trying to beat down those that happen to be under them. Unfortunately not all strikes have had successful issues ...
Wonderful message, excellent film.
Thank you for saving and sharing this treasure 💖
that was the year I was born 1954. I watched the whole movie, I've never heard of it before.
But when labeled , like it was I had to see, it.
None of us had seen this 1954 movie growing up because it was locked away in storage and not released until 2014. We were lucky the old film even survived 60 years in storage!
@@reFocusZone Wow, like a time capsule. Thanks for the info
*Unfortunately Today we Have some politicians who have pushed and supported huge divisions so hard in our country & so many of our fellow citizens have bought into their division thinking it’s helping them…. And in todays America the fortitude to accomplish anything like this has been long lost.. and the freedoms we have enjoyed for so many generations are at risk of being canceled one at a time*
YES, America is gettin' SCUTTLED and all the sheeple VOTED for it... HELL AT LAST, MOTHERFUCKERS!!! 🔥🖕👹🖕🔥
Ein ganz hervorragender Film. Ich wünschte, es wäre heute noch der Zusammenhalt da, um den Arbeitgebern und der Regierung zu zeigen, dass wir es sind, die ihr Geld erwirtschaften. Stattdessen lassen sie uns am Limit leben.
F , GB und Usrael ziehen als Kriegsvasallen des Geldes , plündernd , mordend und brandschatzend über die gesamte Erde.
Waren es zuvor die Niederlande , Portugal . Spanien und immer im Gepäck das römische Recht .
Denn die Faschien , Zeichen des Trägers der Gesetzesgewalt Rom`s , sind in Washington DC ( Democratie Corporatet ) .
Auch die NSDAP war eine von dieser Gruppe inszenierte Truppe , welche zusätzlich das Glückssymbol , die Swastika , extra benutzte , um es zu besudeln .
Dabei wurden und werden mehr und schrecklichere Gewalttaten unter dem Kreuz durch geführt .
Sind aber auch die Relgionen nur erfundene Ideologien , wie Geld , Gewerkschaften , Parteien und Demokratie .
Es sind Täuschungen um uns in den absoluten " Sozialismus " zu zwingen .
Empire State Building = ein Imperium , dass EINEN Staat erschafft
New World Order = aus der Neuen Welt ( so nannte man Amerika , nicht die USA , seit1492 ) kommen die Befehle ( Order )
Ordo ab chao = Ordnung aus dem Chaos
Deshalb hat sich unser Ober NaZi , Frank Walter Steinmeier , vertan . Denn nicht deutsch ist die Sprache der Täter .
Siehe die Sprachen in vielen Ländern auf den Kontinenten .
And people wonder why Enslaved Mothers snuffed the life of their newborns to prevent a life of misery. The children would be tortured from birth to death.
Это правда. А сейчас просто не рожают.
These women were very feisty! They fought for their families and stood up for their men, in a situation where evil was being worked against them. Thank God for the courageous women that have changed history for the the good, amen

1953 ,LIFE WAS VERRY HARD,THIS MOVIE SHOWS IT,AND WAS MADE IN 1953,
For some people, life was very hard. However, a lot of people raising families like this young couple had suvived the Great Depression and the Second World War. 1953 was a time of great prosperity in a lot of American states, but not for Blacks in the South or so-called "Mexicans" in the Southwest.
Harder now then families helped each other not today.
Great movie and a timely reminder to keep all unions or go back under the foot of greedy corporations.
unions are corrupt
we need new clean uncorrupted unions
C'est toujours la solidarité qui gagne, j ador ce film, merci pour le partage
Ooooo l can not wait, thank you for this! 😄👍
Share this movie with everyone you know.🇨🇦🪶📢
The Communist Party USA made up films like this during this time. It's a fiction, but everyone pretends its real. I lived in Slovenia for a few years in the late 90s. They loved to play this film and another called, "This is America," which was as extreme exaggeration of the South as possible. They made these films mostly for use in foreign countries to bash Capitalism and the U.S.
@@jan-margaret6970 Why? It's 69 years old and the situation is long gone. It's a fiction anyway. This film and others like it were produced by Communist Party USA and Soviet influenced Unions.
What are you doing all day ? Reading funny papers?......wow this movie really gave me a a new perspective .....just give give equality to everybody... it's not like this country won't end Spanish the same way it started spanish.....
CCClassics-Another Great Great Film! Good Lord of course the government did not want people to see this in 1954- too much unity, too much equality, too much dignity, too much LOVE between mankind. We must still hope LOVE will win in the end, especially now.
Thanks @CrosbieLane
America makes communism look bad, but in some cases I think it's more brutal. I'm not a communist, that system is flawed. If some factories and shops go out of state control, some bad people take advantage of this and oppress the people. Due to the price hikes and ever-increasing prices, people are suffering greatly in Turkey because of nepotism. The state should give the worker equal and full rights to the civil servant as they work. This is justice, not politics.
Вы не жили при коммунистах. Коммунистов зачем ненавидел капиталист? А потому. При коммунистах никто не был богатым. Всё принадлежало простому народу, всё богатство!
Por si algunos no saben esta película se hizo basada en hechos reales y por cierto la protagonista fue deportada a México por hacer dicha historia, ella es Rosaura Revueltas hermana de el famoso músico Silvestre y del ecritor José Revueltas
Hermosa pelicúla: La unión hace la fuerza,siempre sera asi.Y como siermpre la ambicion de poderes
Gracias desde Uruguay con amor
