Thursday, September 20, 2012
5:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Three new library exhibitions at Duke University explore the human experience of farmworkers and the history of a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving their lives. For 20 years, Student Action with Farmworkers (SAF) has worked to bring together students, community members and farmworkers in the Southeast to work for justice in the agricultural system. The organization's papers are held by Duke's Human Rights Archive in the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library. An opening reception for the exhibits will be held at 5 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 20, in Perkins Library's Rare Book Room on Duke's West Campus. The reception, which will feature Latin American food and live music, is free and open to the public.
