Morristown Showing Tonight

A collection of organizations again showed Morristown in Central Kentucky tonight to expand the conversation on immigrant rights within KFTC and our ally groups.

The movie, by Appalshop’s Anne Lewis, explores issues of immigration and workers’ rights working-class people in Mexico and eastern Tennessee are caught in the throes of massive economic change, challenging their assumptions about work, family, nation and community. The film is in Spanish and English with subtitles.

The movie was sponsored by KFTC, the UK College Democrats, Amnesty International UK, the Latino American Student Organization, KCIRR, and the local chapter of United Food and Commercial Workers.

If you've not seen the video, you can see a clip on Appalshop's website. 

 Students and community members discuss after the movie.
