Andrew, Lisa, and I have had the amazing privilege of participating in the Engaging Our World Conference at Wofford College this weekend. It has been an incredible opportunity to connect with student organizers from across the South who are working on everything from Fair Trade and local food to climate change to Burma... In our Theater of the Oppressed workshop, we had a chance to explore the challenges of tabling and apathetic campus environments and collectively surface creative and fun ways to do our organizing better. In our Fair Trade 101, we talked a lot about the challenges students face with Food Service Providers and began to talk about strategies for campaigns. Our afternoon culminated with a rad popular education activity that included 40 students as we delved deeper into the experience of power and powerlessness in coffee communities. Then we got to work, talking about our roles as student solidarity organizers and making commitments to action when we return to our communities. Working with such awesome people has been very motivating and makes me even more excited to continue across the country for Fair Trade Month. Keep following our progress, things are getting exciting!
