If you eat / cook / buy / grow / love food, this event is for YOU! As we reflect on a most extraordinary year, what did 2020 teach us? What are the fundamental ways we’ve changed and grown within our communities? What are our new visions for the future of food and food access? Our guest panelists are joining us from Boston and Northeast MA, Connecticut, New York, and the Merrimack Valley — come hear their experiences and share their wisdom at this special virtual event!

The next installment in Vermont Law School’s Embedded Racism in the Law virtual panel series features attorneys and organizers who serve and advocate on behalf of farmworkers. Join us as we examine how the legacy of discriminatory Jim Crow-era policies persists in agricultural workers’ intentional exclusion from labor protections, and discuss how farmworkers and their advocates are fighting to improve working conditions, immigration status, and access to justice.
