Embedded Racism on the Farm: Labor La...Description
Farmworkers are essential workers. Yet many laws and policies exclude them from the basic labor protections other workers receive. Hosted by the Center for Agriculture and Food Systems, the next installment in Vermont Law School’s Embedded Racism in the Law 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 farmworkers’ intentional exclusion from labor protections, and discuss how farmworkers and their advocates are fighting to improve working conditions, immigration status, and access to justice.
