Film Screening: Food Chains

Join us in watching this exposé on a group of “intrepid and highly lauded” Florida farmworkers who are revolutionizing the farmworker industry. The film is a story of hope and promise for the triumph of morality over corporate greed – to ensure a dignified life for farm workers and a more humane, transparent food chain. This event is sponsored by Health Equity Circle.
