For consumers, bananas are a delicious and nutritious start to to the day, a healthy snack and a fixture in our fruit bowls. For millions of residents in the banana lands, the production of bananas means social upheaval, violence and pesticide poisoning. Banana Land explores the origins of these disparate realities, and opens the conversation on how workers, producers and consumers can address this disconnect.
The film showing will be followed by a Q&A panel discussion.
$10 suggested donation. Tickets are available at the Peace and Justice Center (60 Lake St, Burlington) or at the door on the day of the event.
