Need a weekend movie? Checkout Little Woods: Little Woods, North Dakota, a fracking boomtown well beyond its prime. Ollie is trying to survive the last few days of her probation. When her mother dies, she is thrust back into the life of her estranged sister Deb, who is facing her own crisis. As bills and pressure mount, Ollie faces a choice: whether to return to a way of life she thought she'd left behind for just one more score or to leave it all behind. A taut and affecting thriller about sisters pushed to extremes from award-winning director Nia DaCosta.

Michele Fazio, E. Brooke Kelly, and several of their students visit a migrant farmworker labor camp in Southeastern North Carolina. Michele Fazio discusses this experience and the realities of farming in NC in the latest blog on the WCSA website.

Check out the latest write up for Working-Class Perspectives. Under the Journal and Publications tab you can find “Mexican Workers Pay the Cost of the Immigration Crackdown” by Fernando Herrera Calderón.

Past-president Michelle M. Tokarczyk , author of Bronx Migrations and The House I’m Running From, has a new poem, “Philomela in the Rooms,” published in the feminist literary collective, Writers Resist.

WCSA Weekend Movie: Many argued this movie was over-looked this past Oscar season. But no one can deny this movie was thought provoking and creative. Written by the two leads- it is set over the finals days of Collin’s (Daveed Diggs, Hamilton) probation. But everything that can go wrong does and the 2 friends come to terms with race and class division in America. #blindspotting #wcsa #workingclass
