SUMMARY:THE FARM LABOR MOVEMENT\, Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Thurs June 25\, 1 pm Pacific time\, Zoom \nFellowship of Reconciliation USA presents a “Gathering Voices” conversation.  Dr. Linda Alvarado-Arce\, FOR’s Interim Co-Executive Director\, will be joined by Mr. Baldemar Velásquez\, Founder & President of the Farm Labor Organizing Committee (FLOC)\, AFL-CIO. \nIn this gathering\, Linda\, a Mexican-American activist and educator\, will engage Baldemar in a rich conversation about the origins\, evolution\, and trajectory of the Farm Labor Organizing Committee (FLOC)\, especially today when immigrants are being detained and deported at high levels and for just wanting to provide for their families. Baldemar is a highly respected national and international leader in both the farm labor and immigrant rights movements. He\, with his family and midwest community founded FLOC in 1967. He describes his strong work ethic and passion for social justice as being tied to his Christian faith\, mentors\, and personal upbringing. \nA discussion will be held around what the current initiatives are for FLOC and how others\, like yourself\, could build upon them and assist\, i.e.\, the Black/Brown Unity Coalition\, Police Code of Conduct\, FLOC Identification Cards\, the FLOC Homies Union\, the Stop Corrupt Contractors Campaign\, a pathway to citizenship initiative\, and Songs for Justice. Currently\, FLOC is calling on volunteers to support a rebirth of the farmworker movement\, which has been stagnated since before COVID and is now recovering from the Cesar Chavez controversy. Please join us for this timely discussion around immigration\, migration\, unity\, and compassion. \nRegistration https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/1Vz74aMiQhO637_41wNevQ#/registration
