The Florida Holocaust Museum in partnership with The Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) presents the film “Food Chains: The Revolution in America’s Fields,” about the farm workers in Immokalee, Fla., who launched a hunger strike at the headquarters of Publix supermarkets to protest poor wages and working conditions. Followed by a short discussion with the CIW.

The program is part of the Museum’s Genocide and Human Rights Awareness Movement. It is sponsored by the Leif Nissen Foundation.
