Farmworker Marches are a long standing tradition in Skagit county, going back to 1987. After several years of the march being on pause, Familias Unidas por la Justicia is teaming up with C2C Promotoras, Bayan Seattle, and other local organizations to bring the tradition back with new reasons to celebrate. In this episode, organizers of the march talk logistics and offer a historical context for farmworker marches.

We need supporters to help make this march happen! Sign up to volunteer here.
