Nadando Contra la Corriente con Justicia Migrante: Milk With Dignity - All Day Picket and Rally Outside Hannaford in Williston 05/01/2024

From Migrant Justice:

For years, farmworkers have called on Hannaford customers to engage with the company and make their demands heard – and thousands have responded, sending emails, making calls, writing postcards, speaking with store managers and more. But Hannaford has refused to listen. This is why on May 1st we are taking the new step of telling customers: Don’t cross the picket line; don’t shop at Hannaford!

From the store’s opening at 7am to its closing at 11pm, workers and allies will maintain a picket, educating potential customers about the human rights abuses on Hananford’s farms and urging them to shop elsewhere.

Join us on the picket line for a few hours – or the full day! – on May 1st at the Hannaford Supermarkets in Williston. At 5:30pm, we will gather outside the store for a large rally.

Panelists:
Patrick Heltz, Content Manager – Media Factory

The challenge of populating public access channels with consistent content has increased in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and digital competitors such as YouTube. What strategies are being employed by programmers to increase and diversify content? What are some sources that can be adopted immediately to help fill channel schedules? Are traditional media classes a robust enough pipeline or do we need to think of non-traditional ways in which to capture content? How can public access leverage today’s digital content explosion?
