Our agricultural system is rooted in racism and today’s farm workers continue to face challenges connected to this legacy. From exclusionary labor laws and beyond, farm workers experience exploitative social and economic systems that impact their daily lives. To upend the unjust and racist agricultural system, farm workers are organizing to change their inhumane working and living conditions.

This webinar will focus on the way racism impacts farm workers and will include topics such as historical context, environmental racism, modern-day slavery, discriminatory practices against farmers of color, and more. We will also include ways you can take action to make a positive difference for farm workers.

Join us for our free webinar on October 10th at 2 p.m. (EST) to learn more about this important issue and how people of faith and conscience can be an ally. The webinar will be offered in English and Spanish.
