Donald Trump's threatened tariffs would be another nail in the coffin for Florida's citrus industry.Greg Asbed from the Coalition of Immokalee Workers joins us on this episode to discuss the history of working conditions for agriculture workers, especially tomato pickers, in southwest Florida. The CIW was instrumental to enacting one of the most effective programs to improve working conditions for agriculture workers in U.S. history, the Fair Food Program. If you're interested in working conditions for agricultural workers in Florida, the limited edition "Big Sugar" podcast is essential listening revealing the historic and ongoing abuses of workers by Florida sugar companies. The weekly "Seeking Rents" podcast examines corporate power and influence run amok in Florida and our politicians' complicity with corporate power to the detriment of citizens.
On Food Talk with Dani Nierenberg, Dani speaks with Gerardo Reyes Chavez, a key leader of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW). They discuss the abuses that many farm workers in the U.S. face, the development of the CIW's Fair Food Program and its model of worker empowerment, and what recent attacks on immigrant communities could affect the farm workers who put food on our plates.

#194: Greg Asbed and Gerardo Reyes Chavez of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers tell the story of their movement's origins, including the injustices faced by farmworkers in Florida's tomato fields that led to slavery lawsuits. As they continue to apply pressure through corporate boycotts and public campaigns, they reflect on what has worked, what has changed, and all that still needs fixing since their early win enrolling Taco Bell into the Fair Food ProgramThe Coalition of Immokalee Workers is a human and worker rights organization founded in 1993 by farmers experiencing injustice in Florida's tomato fields. In 2011, CIW launched the Fair Food Program, negotiating one penny more per pound of tomatoes sold to Taco Bell to pay for the implementation of improved conditions for farmworkers. CIW was also able to convince Taco Bell, Walmart and other large scale food system players to source from farms complying with a code of conduct. To date, their program has spread throughout the US and beyond, and they still work tirelessly to encourage more entities to stop sourcing from bad actors.https://ciw-online.org/To watch a video version of this podcast please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/coalition-immokalee-workers-successful-boycotts-episode-one-hundred-ninety-fourThe Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/farmsWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000 Real Fans!https://www.realorganicproject.org/1000-real-fans/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/
Series: Labor Day Special Episode Episode Description: “Suffering doesn't have to be part of the food we eat. Workers feed every family in this country, and it is only fair that everyone, everywhere should do something to make sure that farm workers have the same ability to feed their families with dignity and respect. And it doesn't take much. It takes for us to have these conversations.” —Gerardo Reyes Chávez The food we consume is often built upon the backs of a vulnerable workforce struggling to maintain their dignity and basic rights. While we enjoy the convenience and affordability of our food, we must reckon with the unseen sacrifices made by the men, women, and children who toil in the fields, a sobering reality that challenges us to consider the true price we pay for the food we consume. Gerardo Reyes Chávez is a seasoned farm worker and community organizer who has dedicated over 25 years to advocating for the rights of agricultural laborers. As a long-time member of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW), Gerardo has been instrumental in the development and implementation of the groundbreaking Fair Food Program, which has dramatically improved working conditions and wages for tens of thousands of farm workers across the United States. Tune in as Justine and Gerardo relate the stark contrasts between farm workers' cultural expectations and the harsh realities they face in the agricultural industry, the systemic nature of the abuses and exploitation they endure, the outsized power of major food brands driving industry consolidation and wage stagnation, the innovative and persistent approach of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers in targeting this systemic change, the potential for replicating successful models like the Fair Food Program, and the critical importance of building solidarity and collective action between consumers, advocates, and the farm worker community to address the deep-rooted challenges in the food system. Connect with Gerardo: Gerardo Reyes Chávez is a distinguished farmworker advocate and a key leader of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW). With a background in farm labor that began at the age of 11 in Zacatecas, Mexico, Gerardo has dedicated his life to improving the conditions and rights of farmworkers. He has worked in the fields of Florida, picking a variety of crops including oranges, tomatoes, blueberries, and watermelon. As a leader in the CIW, Gerardo has played a pivotal role in the development and implementation of the Fair Food Program, which aims to protect workers from exploitation and improve labor conditions. His efforts include facilitating community meetings, educating workers about their rights, and attracting new buyers to support the program. Gerardo is also actively involved in addressing issues such as wage theft and modern-day slavery, ensuring that farmworkers' voices are heard and their rights are upheld. Gerardo's work has been recognized nationally and internationally, and he frequently speaks at events to raise awareness about the challenges faced by farmworkers and the importance of ethical labor practices.

Jak wygląda system emerytalny w Szwajcarii? Tak jak w większości krajów Europy, w Szwajcarii działają trzy filary emerytalne. Filar I zwany “OASI” to typowa, klasyczna emerytura państwowa. Celem tej emerytury w pierwszym filarze jest zabezpieczenie obywatela: zabezpieczenie podstawowych kosztów życia, wsparcie finansowe na wypadek inwalidztwa, czy śmierci osoby która była jedynym żywicielem rodziny.Filar II to pracownicze plany – dla wszystkich którzy rozpoczęli zatrudnienie z pensją od określonej pensji – 21 150 franków rocznie. Można taką emeryturę wypłacić w ratach czy te w całości. Filar III – ten najciekawszy dla nas opisany szczegółowo poniżej w tym tekście. Dobrowolny 3 filar emerytalny – czyli zabezpieczenie przyszłości finansowej. Z tej opcji korzystają najczęściej osoby które przyjeżdżają do Szwajcarii zarobkowo, lub które zamieszkują Szwajcarię. Trzeci filar w Szwajcarii oznacza trzeci filar w szwajcarskim systemie emerytalnym.III filar emerytalny w SzwajcariiPewne zabezpieczenie przyszłości w SzwajcariiSzwajcarski system emerytalny to trzy stabilne i budzące zaufanie filary. Ten system ma swoje wady, ale w społeczeństwie nadal jest kojarzony z istnym finansowym rajem.3. Säule SchweizNajciekawszy wydaje się być III filar emerytalny – 3. Säule Schweiz – który jest dosyć pewnym, stabilnym zabezpieczeniem przyszłości.III filar w Szwajcarii – jak założyć?Dołączenie do III filaru (3 Säule Schweiz) jest dość proste. Większość osób korzysta z pomocy profesjonalisty ubezpieczeniowego, lub zakłada III filar w banku. Tak, ubezpieczenia w Szwajcariiteż można kupić w banku. Z powodu widma kryzysu w Europie na pewno lepiej jest skupić się na skorzystaniu z usług eksperta ubezpieczeniowego. Dla kogo jest trzeci filar w Szwajcarii?Powinieneś zainteresować się III filarem w Szwajcarii jeżeli:pracujesz na stałe w Szwajcarii inwestujesz pieniądze w Szwajcariimyślisz o przyszłości finansowej swojej rodziny, czy bliskichchcesz kupić mieszkanie lub dom w Szwajcariichcesz na stałe zamieszkać w Szwajcariirozważasz przejście na wcześniejszą emeryturę w Szwajcariiplanujesz kiedyś wyjechać ze Szwajcarii do PolskiIII filar – kiedy zacząć?Każda młoda rodzina mieszkająca w Szwajcarii powinna teraz wybrać III filar. Każda osoba w wieku od 30 do 50 lat powinna się zainteresować tym zabezpieczeniem emerytalnym. Bez problemu możesz już dziś zacząć odkładać emeryturę w III filarze jeżeli masz pozwolenie, np Bewilligung B.III Filar w Szwajcarii – korzyściW rozmowach między klientami a agentami często pada pytanie – jakie są korzyści z III filaru?istotna jest rola agenta – bo wszystkie świadczenia są wyliczane indywidualnieto też świadczenia na wypadek inwalidztwa czy niezdolności do pracygdy założysz III filar u agenta ubezpieczeniowego – w odróżnieniu od banku – istnieje gwarancja wypłaty środkówto możliwość dodatkowych oszczędności, dających spokojne przeżycie na emeryturze bez obaw o przyszłośćSystem emerytalny w SzwajcariiMinimalna emerytura w SzwajcariiW ramach pierwszego filaru czyli OASI (Old Age and Survivor's Insurance) funkcjonuje minimalna emerytura w Szwajcarii.

Nuestra lucha por la justicia alimentaria debe incluir a los que trabajan más cerca de nuestros alimentos. La organizadora de trabajadores agrícolas, Lupe Gonzalo, de la Coalición de Trabajadores de Immokalee (CIW) comparte el profundo poder que se encuentra dentro de las voces de los trabajadores agrícolas. Como trabajadora agrícola, Lupe arroja luz sobre las condiciones abusivas en las que están sujetos trabajadores agrícolas, desde el robo de salaries, la agresión sexual, y condiciones similares a esclavitud moderna. Los intentos fallidos de responsabilizar a los propietarios de granjas por las atrocidades en curso llevaron a Lupe y sus colegas a recurrir al poder de la responsabilidad social. El programa y la campaña Fair Food de CIW amplifican las voces de los trabajadores agrícolas para promover el cambio y fomentar la responsabilidad entre las grandes corporaciones de alimentos para establecer un código de conducta entre sus proveedores. Yendo más allá de establecer protecciones y garantizar que las políticas de seguridad se implementen y hagan cumplir, CIW ha luchado para construir poder, voz y agencia entre los trabajadores agrícolas en Immokalee, FL e inspirado a defensores en todo el país. Our fight for food justice must include those working closest to our food. Farmworker organizer, Lupe Gonzalo, of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) shares the profound power that lies within farmworker voices. As a farmworker herself, Lupe sheds light on the abusive conditions farmworkers work and live in everyday—from wage theft to sexual assault to modern-day slavery. Failed attempts to hold farm owners accountable for on-going atrocities led Lupe and her colleagues to turn to the power of social responsibility. CIWs Fair Food Program and campaign amplifies farmworker voices to advance change and foster responsibility among large food corporations to establish a code of conduct amongst their vendors. Going beyond establishing protections and ensuring that safety policies are implemented and enforced, CIW has worked to build power, voice, and agency among farmworkers in Immokalee, FL and inspired advocates nation-wide.
ESG – temat coraz głośniejszy i coraz mocniej wgryzający się w szereg różnych działań biznesowych na całym świecie. Przez jednych traktowany śmiertelnie poważnie, przez innych jako pewna moda lub coś, co nie ma większego znaczenia. W Unii Europejskiej stanowiący jasno zdefiniowany obszar legislacyjny, będący częścią Europejskiego Zielonego Ładu. Jedną z branż, która z dużym zaangażowaniem podchodzi do ESG jest sektor nieruchomości, w tym nieruchomości biurowych. A ponieważ, to nieruchomości biurowe są bliskie mojemu sercu, jak również są nieodłącznym otoczeniem biznesowym dla sektora BSS, to temat ten postanowiłem bardziej zgłębić.Do 654 odcinka podcastu BSS bez tajemnic zaprosiłem dwoje znakomitych ekspertów z branży nieruchomości biurowych – Elżbietę Rotblum ze SKANSKA oraz Przemka Chimczaka-Bartkowskiego z ThinkCo. ThinkCo na początku roku 2022 opublikował znakomity raport poświęcony ESG. Publikacja ta została stworzona we współpracy z Partnerami, w tym ze SKANSKA. Moi goście nie dość, że skomentowali treść swojej publikacji, to jeszcze rozłożyli na czynniki pierwsze ESG, opowiedzieli jak wygląda podejście do ESG w nieruchomościach biurowych, ale także poruszyli takie tematy jak:- legislacja wprowadzana w ramach Europejskiego Zielonego Ładu i jej wpływ na rynek nieruchomości- sposób myślenia firm o raportowaniu ESG oraz podejmowaniu inicjatyw z zakresu environment (środowiskowe), social (społeczne) i governance (zarządzanie)- taksonomia - znaczenie ESG dla deweloperów nieruchomości biurowych- wpływ podejścia do ESG na cały łańcuch dostaw w sektorze nieruchomościW naszej rozmowie poruszyliśmy nawet temat kurczących się globalnych zasobów gipsu naturalnego i tego w jaki sposób odzyskiwać ten surowiec, aby mógł ponownie służyć branży budowlanej.Temat niewątpliwie ważny, ciekawy, angażujący i coraz mocniej obecny w życiu i funkcjonowaniu wielu przedsiębiorstw, w tym tych z branży nowoczesnych usług biznesowych.Zapraszam do wysłuchania naszej rozmowy.A oto lista linków wartych przeklikania:Baza budynków certyfikowanych - https://baza.plgbc.org.pl/Strona główna Polskiego Stowarzyszenia Budownictwa Ekologicznego - https://plgbc.org.pl/Green Building Tour - https://plgbc.org.pl/projekty/green-building-tour/Odpowiedzialne inwestycje.

As climate change progresses, more people will be forced from their homes and into exploitative environments. In the United States, this is particularly true of farmworkers.The climate crisis is, undeniably, a labor issue too.“like you i woke up in the dark. but i was reaching for animals, trying to beat the heat. like you sunrise usually found me in the middle of doing something. i didn't call it prayer, but i did believe that if i did it every day we would exist.”In today's episode, we hear the poet Alexis Pauline Gumbs read from her book, “DUB”, as she unlearns the separation between her work and that of her great-grandfather's. She shows us how poetry can help us imagine another way of relating to life on earth. We then travel to the agricultural fields of Immokalee, Florida. where Lupe Gonzalo is a senior staff member at the Coalition of Immokalee Workers. She tells us about her experience working tomato fields, the work she does now fighting for farmworker rights, and the need to unlearn the systems of separation between land, food, and people.

Susan Hill: The Path Made by Walking ForwardSusan Hill has, one of the best minds, and hearts I know for translating human creativity to the needs of the human community. In our conversation, we talk about how that complex alchemy works, and doesn't, getting the respect of people who really distrust you, and what happens when the lights go off in a high-security prison classroom. Here is her bio followed by our full transcript. Susan Hill: I'm an eccentric combination of very small towns in New England, and very very large, diverse, multi-lingual cities: living by the ocean is the constant. My relatives include a clipper ship navigator, a detective, excellent carpenters, a race horse trainer, a car salesman, a dressmaker, an artist who changed / Americanized her name, nurses and teachers and wonderful cooks. I love the risks, the service, and the high craft implicit in their lives. I went to college (1961-1965) , not to art school … but fell in love with photography in college, learned to develop film and to print images by apprenticing, began photographing people and neighborhoods in New York and Los Angeles .. walking everywhere, photographing. This is how I began … an immersion in seeing a city, in fact, documenting what I saw … but as witness, documentarian, not an agent. I was looking for a different way of working, and went to a lecture by (then, young) Judy Chicago (1975) , who spoke about a new project she was beginning, a project she needed people to work with her. The Project was The Dinner Party. I was one of the first people who entered her studio to work; our early conversations, and the skills I'd learned from my grandmother, led to our deciding to add embroidered panels to each place setting, my being responsible for the embroidery, for the teams of stitchers, we trained.The studio environment, thecollaborations, the engagement with direct social action, changed everything.After The Dinner Party was complete, I worked with Judy Baca, founder of SPARC (Social and Public Art Resource Center) during the design and painting of the last segment of The Great Wall mural … a brilliant and generous mentor, deepening my love of collaboration and community engagement. (NOTE: Judy is now embarking on one more segment of the Wall.) At the same time, Susan Loewenberg, founder of L.A. Theatre Works, was Director of Artists in Prison and Other Places; she hired me as an artist in residence for California Institution for Women, responsible for creating a fiber arts project with the inmates that would be given public exhibitions. It became a two-year residency called When Prison is Home, creating quilted triptych banners documenting life with family, life within prison, circled by aspirations, worked by inmates, and free women who came to project sessions in the prison as team members. Most of the inmates we worked with had long sentences or life sentences; were considered respected elders of the prison community, had power, were good mentors, generous collaborators. The CIW project experience led to Artsreach, which expanded our community constituencies and the range of arts disciplines. Our worksites included youth and adult prisons, service agencies for seriously developmentally challenged adults, community centers in marginalized areas of South Central, Watts and East Los Angeles. We began a multi-lingual, multi-ethnic theatre company that wrote its own material, there was modern dance, African drumming, spoken word poetry, ceramics, book arts, drawing and painting, collage, video, music. Some programs were skills-based, with traditional development of individual skills; some were initiated with the intention of engaging the public. My continual engagement has always been the expansive possibilities and the risk of collaboration, the engagement in Story, rendered in high skill for personal and public education, the continuing essential of social change. I love being In the Room. TranscriptBill... Support this podcast

The state of Florida is seeing record highs of coronavirus cases as the pandemic stretches into its fifth month. More than 140,000 residents have tested positive for the virus and the state is reversing some of its efforts to reopen the economy. For weeks, Governor Ron DeSantis resisted statewide closures and social distancing while the rural community of Immokalee raised concerns about the virus and requested more testing and PPE. Immokalee is home to thousands of migrant farmworkers, some whom are undocumented or on temporary guest worker visas. During the pandemic they’ve been deemed “essential” by the federal government. Now, Immokalee has the highest number of cases of any zip code in the state of Florida. Host Trymaine Lee talks to the Coalition of Immokalee Workers about their efforts to protect farmworkers in Florida and beyond, as the agricultural season shifts and the nation’s food supply is threatened. Gerardo Reyes Chávez is a leader of CIW who spent many years as a farmworker in Mexico and Florida, starting when he was 11. Greg Asbed co-founded the Coalition of Immokalee Workers in 1993.

Years ago, I attended an event called Encuentro in solidarity with farmworkers in Immokalee, Florida organized by the Student Farm worker Alliance and Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW). At this event I was introduced to a whole range of specific issues surrounding the growth of tomatoes in Florida and the cultural and political landscapes of power that surround the city of Immoklaee.So, for this episode of Picture Theory I contacted Natali Rodriguez and Silvia Perez to see if they could share their perspectives and insights as women, organizers, and farmworkers, demanding justice in a time of crisis and political polarization.Silvia is a farmworker staff member of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers and one the coordinators of the Women's Group, she’s also a DJ on the Coalition’s radio station, and organizes for the national Wendy's Boycott.Natali is a staff member of the CIW and in addition to community support, she helps coordinate the logistics for the worker-to-worker education sessions that the CIW facilitates throughout the season. Natali will also be translating today’s conversation.So, you might be wondering what is the CIW and what kind of work do they do? First here’s a little context: the average wage for a farmworker in Immokalee is roughly 17k a year. The work is extremely, physically labor-intensive and very difficult to maintain a family on. Immokalee is a multiracial working class immigrant community surrounded by wealthy communities that often ignore the human rights and needs of those in Immokalee.The CIW is a leader in the growing movement to end human trafficking due to its groundbreaking work to combat modern-day slavery and other labor abuses common in agriculture. In order to take action and demand justice the CIW has three broad campaigns or strategies you should know about:The Campaign for Fair FoodThe CIW’s national Campaign for Fair Food educates consumers on the issue of farm labor exploitation – its causes and solutions – and forges alliances between farmworkers and consumers in an effort to enlist the market power of major corporate buyers to help end that exploitation. Since 2001, the campaign has combined creative, on-the-ground actions with online organizing to win Fair Food Agreements with eleven multi-billion dollar food retailers, including McDonald’s, Subway, Sodexo and Whole Foods, establishing more humane farm labor standards and fairer wages for farmworkers in their tomato suppliers’ operations.The Fair Food ProgramUnder the FFP, the CIW conducts worker education sessions, held on-the-farm and on-the-clock, on the new labor rights set forth in the Fair Food Code of Conduct; the Fair Food Standards Council, a third-party monitor created to ensure compliance with the FFP, conducts regular audits and carries out ongoing complaint investigation and resolution.Anti-Slavery CampaignThe CIW’s Anti-Slavery Campaign has uncovered, investigated, and assisted in the prosecution of numerous multi-state, multi-worker farm slavery operations across the Southeastern U.S., helping liberate over 1,200 workers held against their will; pioneered the worker-centered approach to slavery prosecution; played a key role in the passage of the 2000 Trafficking Victims Protection Act; and co-founded the national Freedom Network USA and the Freedom Network Training Institute, which is regularly attended by local, state and federal law enforcement officialsIn our conversation Silvia and Natali talk about what the CIW’s focus has been on before the COVID pandemic and how the workers are cooping with the health crisis as farmworkers, asking supporters to sign this petition and demanding justice from the governor:Set up a field hospital, or alternative care facility, in Immokalee to provide both treatment for COVID-19 patients with severe symptoms, and a separate quarantine space to allow workers with milder symptoms to self-isolate, to stop the spread of the virus in the community and relieve stress on the local health system.Require agricultural employers to provide personal protective gear, particularly masks, to farmworkers for use while they are traveling to and from the fieldsEnsure comprehensive, free, accessible COVID-19 testing in Immokalee, when widespread testing becomes availableAllocate public funds for economic relief for Florida farmworkersHere’s our conversation with Silvia and Natali of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers:You can also listen to Picture Theory on Spotify and in the Apple podcasts app.Episode notes:History of the CIW; started in 1993Immigrant farm workers coming from Mexico, Guatemala, HaitiWage theft, difficult working conditions, extreme cases, sexual assault25,000 people working in agricultureMigrant community dependent on growing seasonsHousing conditions of workersHow COVID pandemic aggravates the conditionsThe history behind the CIWSiliva’s backstory with CIW women’s group and becoming a staff memberA typical day in the life of a farmworker in ImmokaleeWhat campaign work looked like before the COVID pandemicWhat does a victory look like for a farmworker action and campaignDemands 1 extra penny per tomatoEliminating wage theftZero tolerance policy for sexual assault in the workplaceThe key players in the fight for food justice from Wendy’s, to Walmart, to hospitalsWhat the supply chain looks like on a macroscale and how anyone who eats tomatoes is involvedThe after-effects of slavery and the history behind why tomatoes are grown in Immokalee, FloridaWhat it’s like to raise a family as latinx communities living in a politically conservative state ImmokaleeWhy Immokalee is a forgotten working class immigrant community surrounded by wealthy land ownersThe joys of doing work as a coalitionFarm work is not easy and the wages on average are around 17000 per year and the seasons are unpredictableSelf isolation for workers who can’t go back to their homes without spreading the virus furtherNatali describes the nation network of food justice organizations

Amirah and Will discuss their participation in the Coalition of Immokalee Workers' Freedom Fast in New York City that took place March 11-15, 2018. Then they play "one-one-one" where they each ask each other 3 questions on a particular theme. This episode's them is the word "fast" in honor of the Freedom Fast. The Coalition of Immokalee Workers is a farmworker-led human rights organization that is changing the lives of people who work in agriculture across the United States. Their Fair Food Program raises wages, eliminates forced labor (slavery) in the fields, stops sexual and physical violence, and ensures that people have the right to access to water and bathroom breaks while they work. The CIW's current campaign is calling on Wendy's fast food restaurants to join the Fair Food Program like other fast food outlets such as Taco Bell, McDonald's, Burger King, Subway, and Chipotle. In this episode, Amirah and Will describe their experience participating in the CIW's annual spring action, which took place in front of the office of Nelson Peltz, Wendy's board chair and largest shareholder. Farmworkers and allies fasted for 5 days in front of Peltz's office in midtown Manhattan. The week culminated with a march where thousands of people joined farmworkers in their call for justice. In the second half of the podcast, Amirah and Will play "one-on-one," which is a way they have a structured conversation by asking each other 3 questions on a particular topic. In this episode, the theme for the conversation is the word "fast" in honor of the CIW's Freedom Fast.

FBI visits more activists in WNC From BRABC: On September 8, 2017, an FBI agent attempted to visit a comrade in western North Carolina. They visited a house, and the person there stepped outside to talk to the agent, who repeatedly asked if the comrade in question lived there. The person at the house did not engage with those questions, and instead insisted on a card from the agent that a lawyer could call later. The agent said it was regarding a case being handled by another office. This comes at a time when Anarchists have been standing up to a grand jury and other FBI harassment across the state of North Carolina. The person who the FBI agent was seeking secured legal representation. On September 13, 2017, their lawyer called a number the agent wrote down, and the FBI specified that they were actually looking to speak with the person's child, a minor. The FBI said that they were seeking the original person because a legal guardian had to be present for the agent to talk to the minor. During that call the agent stated she wanted to ask about graffiti on a car related to a case being investigated by the FBI Field Office in Raleigh, NC. The minor in question has now secured legal representation. Nobody above is speaking to the FBI. We cannot just hope that harassment like this stops. Get educated on how to protect yourself if the FBI shows up. If you are approached by the FBI, refuse to answer their questions. Know your rights! Please read If An Agent Knocks for more information. We cannot let them intimidate us and raise fear and distrust. If An Agent Knocks: https://ccrjustice.org/if-agent-knocks-booklet

Prison Lifer to Life Coach. Daniel interviews Norma, Released Into Captivity’s first woman guest. Norma talks about her desire to build a relationship with her newborn son while incarcerated. They talk about first, second and third draws, Christmas pastry shortages, release dates (Adrian Vasquez chimes in), and correctional counselors. Norma served a 15 to life +4 sentence. She fought a murder for 2 years and was released on bail. She was offered a manslaughter plea but turned it down to go to trial and she lost. California currently has two and half women’s prisons (Chowchilla, California Institute for Women (CIW) and 400 beds at New Folsom) compared to 33 men’s prisons. Daniel talks about how he stopped at CIW en route to a court hearing from CRC to Riverside. They discuss comparing their cases to the cases of other inmates. Most women doing time are not the primary assailant in their cases but rather co-defendants. Adrian explains the felony murder statute in California. Norma believes women stay with men doing time but men leave. Norma received an AS degree thanks to a pilot program sponsored by Warden Dawn Davidson. Heidi Rummell was Norma’s attorney and the day after this recording Norma and Heidi went to CIW to perform mock board hearings with women. Heidi and Norma are very close friends now. Gum not allowed in prison and the Lawrence case, Doc Miller, Joe Wasco, fighting to get out and fighting when we get out, Norma’s son earns a purple heart in Afghanistan, he now works at a non-profit. Norma gets out with three day notice. She struggles with who to trust and feeling like she does not fit into the world. Daniel speaks about seeing the women at CRC not having much property. Norma misses a phone call and the caller. Adrian and Daniel joke about Dave Chappelle’ Rick James episode. Women lifers separate themselves from non-lifers to protect their feelings. Norma gets released after 18 years and her son was in boot camp and did not see him until a year later. Norma now speaks on different panels to help women. Norma talks about prison equipping her with the unique ability to deal with many different kinds of people interpersonally.

Greg Asbed is a Co-Founder of the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW), a worker-based human rights organization. He works with farmworkers and their student, labor, and religious allies to organize the national Campaign for Fair Food, a breakthrough worker-based approach to corporate accountability in the agricultural industry known for its creativity and effectiveness. He writes and designs the CIW’s main communication tool — the website (www.ciw-online.org) and also coordinates the CIW’s negotiating team in talks with food industry leaders, negotiating “Fair Food” agreements with nine multi-billion dollar retail food corporations to date, including McDonald’s, Subway, Sodexo, and Whole Foods. He is currently leading the effort to develop and implement innovative new farm labor standards in collaboration with two of Florida’s largest tomato growers, paving the way for the implementation of the CIW’s Fair Food Code of Conduct across the entire Florida tomato industry in November, 2011. Greg is one of the authors featured in the textbook Bringing Human Rights Home: Portraits of the Movement (2008). He has an M.A. in International Economics and Social Change and Development from Johns Hopkins SAIS and is fluent in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole. He has also spent the past 15 seasons harvesting watermelons in the states of Florida, Georgia, Missouri, and Maryland.

In its 101st observance, this year, we honor women past, present and future, with an interview with three women: Mama Naomi Diouf, Artistic Director of Diamano Coura West African Dance Company, celebrating the 17th Anniversary of Collage de Africaines, beginning today, March 8-11, 2012, at the Malonga Casquelord Center for the Arts, 1428 Alice Street, Oakland, CA. The second woman is Mama Lola Hanif, founder of Sacred Space Spiritual Support Group, third Thursdays monthly, at 2147 Broadway, Oakland, 4-6 p.m. For the past five years this Sacred Space has hosted over 130 African American women in a spiritually-based, emotionally safe and supportive environment for African American women to gather, network, experience a sense of community. Sacred Space serves as a means of advocating healthy, peaceful African American families. The third woman we feature is one whose voice was formally silenced behind prison walls. Convicted as a child, LaKeisha Burton, born and raised in Compton, spent 18 years in California Institute for Women (CIW) when at 15 she was arrested and tried as an adult and sentenced to life plus 9 years consecutively, which meant she had to serve 9 years first and then life—she was first at youth authority at Camillo in Southern California, for 90 observation where they recommended she stay in the juvenile facility. The sentencing judge said no, send her to prison. In CIW—she was the youngest person there, so she was in a segregated housing unit or in solitary confinement until she turned 18. She served 18 years before release in 2006. No one died. Ironically, she met her victim in CIW, asked for and received her forgiveness. The victim, who killed someone, was released from CIW after 9 years.Visit www.womenprisoners.org
The Coalition of Immokalee Workers organized a rally in front of a center city Trader Joes and the Philly Student Union was there to help support. Immigrant farmworkers across southwest Florida have been working under low wages and have been treated unfairly for many years. Back in 1993 they began organizing and between there hunger strike and their historic 230-mile march in 2000, their organizing ended over declining wages in the tomato industry. By 1998 they won industry-wide raises but wages still remained below poverty level. Today they are called the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) and they are currently fighting for big chain companies like Trader Joes, Walmart, Stop and Shop, ect to sing off on their fair food agreement. This radio piece was produced by Ericka Johnson and it includes a interview with Oscar from the CIW.
