On Friday, October 14, TEDxFruitvale will bring together farmworkers, farmers, activists, artists, students, professors, filmmakers and entrepreneurs to celebrate the people upon whom we depend to harvest our food. In three sessions, titled Meet, Movement, and Money, 18 speakers will provide a 360-degree view of farmworkers today and throughout history; compare labor’s progress with other social justice movements; and end by discussing fair labor practices from a business standpoint. Three special musical guests will perform for each session.

IATP will be hosting a special viewing party in our Stevens Avenue Conference Room from 1:00 to 2:30 p.m. Join us as we screen a portion of the live webcast and bring these important issues home to Minnesota through short discussions with local experts and activists. Cookies and Peace Coffee will be served. This event is free and open to the public--Please RSVP below.
