During the recent Chicago sit-in by workers at Republic Windows and Doors, wage theft in America grabbed national headlines. Join us as Kim Bobo, Founder and Executive Director of Interfaith Worker Justice, discusses her new book, Wage Theft in America: Why Millions of Working Americans Are Not Getting Paid-And What We Can Do About It. This program will be moderated by Sanhita SinhaRoy, managing editor of In These Times.

Bobo argues that every year billions of dollars' worth of wages are stolen from millions of workers, a grand theft that exceeds every other larceny category on record annually. In today's economy, this crime affects more Americans than ever before. Bobo's book is an incisive manual for activists, workers, and concerned citizens on how to prevent flagrant exploitation of America's working people and includes a sweeping analysis of the crisis, hard-hitting statistics, and heart-breaking first-person accounts.

In a season when biographical and semi-biographical films about politicians and wrestlers are making headlines, another biopic film-this one about an assassinated rap artist-has made a few waves of its own. The film, Notorious, is about rapper Christopher Wallace (also known as Biggie Smalls), who was killed in an unsolved drive-by shooting in 1997. Film critics have been particularly harsh regarding the film. A.O. Scott writes in the New York Times: "The movie may not be an authorized biography, but it is if anything less critical, less ambivalent, than some of Biggie's own semi-autobiographical lyrics."
