Join us for a screeing of the movie "Paying the Price: the Toxic Fields of Sinaloa", a documentary about the c...onditions of migrant workers in Northern Mexico.
There will be a follow-up question and answer with Melody Gonzalez, the Campaign Coordinator of Fair Food Across Borders. Melody graduated from Notre Dame where she helped lead a protest of a sports sponsorship supported by Taco Bell - this was in support of the Immokalee Workers Boycott of Taco Bell. For the past 3 years, Melody served as a bridge between the multiple student, faith, labor, and community-based allies of the CIW; raising consciousness about the exploitation and human rights abuses faced by farmworkers in Florida and moving consumers to take action to demand fair food, justice, and dignity. She also provides a unique perspective as the daughter of Mexican immigrants who worked on farms in both Sinaloa, Mexico, and in the United States.
This will be an awesome chance to see an interesting film, hear about how global issues play a part in our lives in Columbus, and hear an unique speaker! Also, there will be lots of FREE FOOD for all!
