There are approximately 1,500 migrant workers that sustain Vermont’s iconic working landscape and turn profits for our many famous Vermont brands. Workers often work 60-80 hours per week and experience isolation, often without a clear sense of where they are. Further, migrant workers are generally excluded from many worker and housing right protections. Join us this November for a viewing and discussion series to learn more about migrant justice and immigration in Vermont, and to talk about ways we can take steps to be better neighbors to those who are so critical to Vermont’s farm culture.
Join us for an in person film screening at the library featuring three short films:
Estrelitta
Silenced Voices
Under the Cloak of Darkness
Join us this Giving Season to support migrant farm workers and their families in Vermont.
