Who’s Behind the Platter?
This resource has some reminders about farm worker struggles, some action steps and information about the movie “Food Chains” which chronicles the fabulous work of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers in their efforts to bring justice to tomato pickers, and a set of photos and farm worker stories gathered from an event at the White House on November 19, 2014. These farm workers flew to Washington D.C., from all around the country, and shared their stories about how they grow the food for our feasts!! We’ve compiled their stories and photos as a part of the “Who’s Behind the Platter?” documents.
