Cargo in Question: Two Films about Labor, Shipping, and Globalization in the 21st Century

The Santa Barbara Maritime Museum (SBMM) presents “Cargo in Question: Two Films about Labor, Shipping, and Globalization in the 21st Century” on Thursday, April 20, 2023, at 7:00 pm. As part of this special event, Dr. Mae Miller-Likhethe and Dr. Charmaine Chua, assistant professors of Global Studies at UCSB, will screen two films—Cargo (2001, 29 minutes) and All that Perishes at the Edge of Land (2019, 31 minutes)—followed by a Q & A session and discussion (for a full 90 minutes). The films, which blur the lines between fiction and reality, offer important insights into the daily lives, working conditions, and dreams of the seamen and ship-breakers across global supply chains. Cost is free for SBMM’s Navigator Circle Members, $10 for all other members, and $20 for members of the public. There will also be a pre-lecture reception for members only from 6:15-6:45 https://sbmm.org/santa-barbara-event/ and become a member at https://sbmm.org.
