SE Power Shift 2016: Recharge

As students and young people, we have a powerful voice within our campuses and communities to confront injustice and transform the systems around us. In this workshop, farmworker and youth leaders will explore the responsibility each consumer has in holding food corporations, like Wendy's, accountable for abusive conditions within their supply chains. We will learn about the Coalition of Immokalee Workers' fight to raise wages and eradicate abuses in the fields and how the Campaign for Fair Food has transformed the U.S. agricultural industry – and how students and youth play a powerful role in amplifying the voices of farmworkers within our campuses and communities.
