We hosted a workshop centralized on boycotting Driscoll's, informing our guest of what the movement entails, addressing the significance of boycotting, and advocating for their participation in the struggle against labor exploitation and human right violations.
Our presentation was followed by a poster-making session. The banners were distributed across the UCSC campus.

At our Wednesday weekly meetings, we shared a meal with representatives from campus organization. and discussed the on-going movement of boycotting Driscolls. In case, you're not aware Driscoll's is one of the largest berry distributors and their growers have been violating the human rights of their employees. These farmer workers- both in the US and Meixco have reported being paid less than minimum wage, skipping breaks unwillingly, exposed to harmful chemicals, and denied of medical insurance. This is only a short list of what these employees are addressing.
Hello Everyone! We kicked off the school year with La Bienvienda hosted by El Centro. We ate pupusas, tabled and met many lovely faces interested in learning about how our organization advocates social, economical and environmental justice to our daily lives. |
