American Harvest

A screening of “American Harvest,” a documentary film on immigration, introduced by its writer, producer and director, Angelo Mancuso, will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 27 in the Geneva Room of Warren Hunting Smith Library. Mancuso’s appearance is in conjunction with the immigration conference sponsored by the Colleges’ Office of Intercultural Affairs.

In his film, Mancuso, of Rochester, tackles the complacency of many regarding the backbreaking work it takes to get fresh fruits and vegetables to our supermarkets and tables. Growers from Florida to Upstate New York talk of their frustration at the lack of local labor and their dependence on "illegal" farm workers for survival.
