Support The Florida Farmworkers Ahora!

Labor Day picket kicks off fall season for Campaign for Fair Food! CIW Women’s Group member, Ana, at Sunday’s Labor Day picket at Publix “… It is with these very hands that I supply the tomatoes that you use, from which you profit…” On Monday, we shared a powerful reflection on the global movement for workers’ human rights and the Fair Food Program’s worker-driven, market-powered model — but that was not the CIW’s only commemoration of Labor Day 2015!  This past Sunday, Florida farmworkers and their families celebrated the holiday with a lively protest in front of a local Publix supermarket. The high-spirited action was led by the CIW women’s group, and bolstered by the presence of a diverse group of allies from across southwest Florida... Don't miss the powerful messages that the Fair Food Nation had for Publix (and more beautiful photos) over at the CIW website!
