Sustainable Futures Speaker Series

Humboldt State University

As part of the Sustainable Futures Speaker Series, Dr. Seth Holmes will present, along with Triqui-Mexican farmworker collaborators, “Migrant Farmworkers and Our Food System: Inequalities, Health, and What’s Gone Wrong.” Seth Holmes is Associate Professor in Medical Anthropology and Public Health at UC Berkeley and attending physician at Highland Hospital in Oakland. His research focuses on social hierarchies, health, health care and the naturalization and normalization of difference and inequality in the context of US-Mexico im/migration and our transnational food system. For this research, he spent one year and half full-time migrating with Triqui native Mexican farmworkers, several of whom will be presenting with Dr. Holmes, living in labor camps and picking strawberries in Washington and Oregon, living in a slum apartment and pruning vineyards in California, living in a village in the mountains of southern Mexico while harvesting and planting corn, and crossing the border desert on foot into Arizona. Location: Founders Hall 118, HSU campus.
