Son del Centro in Immokalee
In May '05 SdC was invited to play for the Immokalee community celebration of the groundbreaking CIW victory in March 2005: Taco Bell/YUM came to the table and agreed to demands for a worker reviewed human rights code of conduct so that no abusive growers are in business with the huge fast food chain, along with a penny more per pound raise down the supply chain directly to farmworkers (for Six L's Packing Co.) which nearly doubles yearly wages (!). www.ciw-online.org
August 2005, SdC was back in Immokalee for the first annual Youth/Student Encuentro put on by the Student/Farmworker Alliance, national network of students that work in solidarity with the CIW. www.sfalliance.org
