Event Description
Book Launch for Harvesting Freedom: The Life of a Migrant Worker in Canada
Please join us for the Toronto book launch of Gabriel Allahdua's memoir, "Harvesting Freedom: The Life of a Migrant Worker in Canada."
In this singular firsthand account, a former migrant worker reveals a disturbing system of exploitation at the heart of Canada’s farm labour system. Harvesting Freedom shows Canada’s place in the long history of slavery, colonialism, and inequality that has linked the Caribbean to the wider world for half a millennium—but also the tireless determination of Caribbean people to fight for their freedom.
