Left Behind: Slavery Museum in Lakeland, CIW in Dallas, and more!


Left behind...

Students at Lakeland's George Jenkins High (named after the founder of the Publix supermarket chain) experience the weight of a full tomato bucket during the visit of the Modern-Day Slavery Museum to the school last month.

Things can get a little hectic in the Campaign for Fair Food and, as a result, every now and then we look around and realize that we have allowed a number of great stories fall by the wayside while we try to keep up with all the day-to-day happenings. And so today, in order that those stories do not molder away forever under stacks of the very latest news at Campaign headquarters, we are debuting an update that will appear from time to time in these pages that we call "Left Behind".

So go to the CIW website today to see the complete "Left Behind" update, including more from the Modern-Day Slavery Museum visit to Lakeland, news from a CIW panel discussion in Dallas with Eva Longoria (yes, that Eva Longoria) and WalMart, and a Media Round-Up!
