We are going to read passages from the text both for and against striking. As a reminder, striking or going on strike means to stop working as a way of fighting for something you believe you deserve.

While you are reading the passages, continue to think about your opinion: Do you agree or disagree with the workers going on strike?

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are for better housing and better wages marta wants more people to join her to strike and people still dont want to strike because they have mouths to feed and they dont want the okies to steal their job and it might be dangerous because their is going to be violence in striking

I agree with striking becauseif mexicans have no hot water why to the okies have it all the people do the same job and the okies have better housing and better money so they should strike and see what the farmowners to they should give them more money and better housing because they give them a 2 room cabin and that is not enough for a big family.

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are that they are small and weak like the kittens Marta is holding up. And if they don't fight back, they will stay like that.

I disagree with striking because they are just one small group. I think you need to be in a bigger group of workers to get what you want. I think that the bosses wont give them what they want if they strike. If the bosses don't give them what they want, they will lose their jobs to the Okies. Without the job, you wont get money too afford food.

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are because They want better housing and they want every thing that they right now and they need heat when ever it get cold and need air conditioner when ever they get hot.

I agree with striking in a non-violent way because if they do it violently their house can get bombed and their could be war.

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are pretty risky because if they strike and nothing of the stuff they were saying they will do the same work but get less wages and bad housing over it.

I disagree with striking because if they strike it will make the other who wants to strike make it worse over fighting and maybe there's a chance that it won't change of what they want.

# data[].attributes.body
1. when Marta was telling others to strike because they wanted better housing.

2. they said if the japans or Oklahoma got hot water they are going to strike because they also deserved hot water

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of the striking are talking about how little they have and how other camps have it better then them when they all do the same jobs and work the same but the oakies get better things then them. Like the oakies get hot water while the Mexicans dont. There also talking about how they resemble kittens small and weak and that all they wanna do is feed there family's.

i agree with striking because the way they are being treated compared to the oakies isn't right they should all get the same things because they are doing the same jobs and they should fight for more then what little they have. They deserve way more then what they are getting

# data[].attributes.body
I disagree with striking because if they strike the Okies will most likely say no and they will also they might even lose their jobs and not make money at all. and that´s why i disagree

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are for wanting more money, better housing, and overall better conditions. I disagree with striking because there is a 50/50% chance that they might lose their jobs and they probably wont´t get what they want

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are they want better housing because its only a two room house and there also want more money cause they are not getting paid enough

I agree OR disagree with striking because i would agree because its not fair that some other people are being paid more money and have better housing than the other people

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with this strike because they don't have the best living conditions they don't have hot water and they aren't getting paid much and they have to work a lot for a little money it is better to strike than keep living in those conditions

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are getting better housing, better wages  and also having hot water because they don't have good housing right now and they are not getting paid enough.

I disagree with striking because they might get hurt because sometimes there is violence and I also disagree because they might not get the consequences they want.

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking are like they want to strike for there rights like the Oklahoma have better house and hot water even though they all have the same job and the Okies have better thing that the Mexican and Japanese and Marta was said like we are small animals and they treat them bad because they don't speak up for there right's and she said if we don't speak up for our right's then we will never get it.

I disagree with striking because, people that don't want to strike are going to get involved, and they can also lose there job and then the Oklahoma can take there job's and can get more stuff like better house or bigger because right now they have good house and they also have warm water and the Mexican and Japaneses don't and I also disagree because if they lived all tougher then they will be strong and they will have good house and warm water, they are separating them by race.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
The arugments in favor of striking are for better wages/housing  and marta wants more people or like a bigger group so they could getter things.

# data[].attributes.body
The arguments in favor of striking is that Marta wants people and herself to be paid enough and have nice house conditions.

I agree with striking because when the sand storm came it could have broke the window or the door  cause the house might not be strong enough and the people who disagree with Marta they are scared to face what will happen they are the reason why their family get sick or have  worse house condition. People rather be silent and just keep working even if the dont get paid enough, but if Marta and people who agree with her will might get what they want but I think that Marta should get enough people to strike cause small groups can be easy to stop.
