Premiere of Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price

November 2005

walmart_trans.gifThe campaign to expose the truth about Wal-Mart began with the promotion of the Robert Greenwald documentary, "Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price." Working with Brave New Films, Campaign for America's Future joined a coalition that sponsored over 7,000 citizen screening parties, giving the documentary a true people's premiere.. We also hosted the official Washington movie premiere, an event attended by Robert Greenwald, Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., Rep. George Miller, D-Ill., and two stars of the film, Red and Dee Esry. You can listen to podcasts and see photos from the D.C. premiere, our Capitol Hill press conference with Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., and Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn., and you can find out where to purchase the movie.
