Ally Corner: Reading, and writing, about the Fair Food Program!…

For a Better World Magazine features excellent article on Worker-driven Social Responsibility as solution to gender-based violence penned by longtime Fair Food ally Rev. Noelle Damico…

Here’s a fun way to kick off the New Year!

People often ask us what they can do as allies to help advance the expansion of the award-winning Fair Food Program.  Well, the first week of the New Year provided an excellent example of independent Fair Food activism at its finest.

Last week we received an email from former Student/Farmworker Alliance staffer Marc Rodrigues letting us know that – as he was shopping for Fair Food produce at his local Whole Foods – he had come across an article in the magazine For a Better World on the Fair Food Program… by another longtime Fair Food ally, the Rev. Noelle Damico!  The article is, quite simply, an excellent, well-argued endorsement of the Worker-driven Social Responsibility approach as a proven solution to gender-based violence for workers around the globe, from factories to the fields. 

It’s so good, in fact, that we are including the article in full here, below.  Thanks go out to Noelle for the exemplary advocacy, and to Marc for the giving us the heads up!  Enjoy…
