SUMMARY:Austin Frerick on Barons: Money\, Power\, and the Corruption of America’s Food Industry.
DESCRIPTION:November 13\, 2025 from 12:30 – 1:15pm in WCC 1010 \n\nJoin HLS FoodSoc and the Antitrust Association for a conversation with Austin Frerick\, a policy expert in agriculture and antitrust. Austin will discuss his recent book\, Barons: Money\, Power\, and the Corruption of America’s Food Industry\, which profiles a series of powerful magnates to illustrate the concentration of power in the global food system.\n\n\nBarons is the story of seven titans of the food industry\, their rise to power\, and the consequences for workers\, eaters\, and democracy itself. Readers will meet a secretive German family that took over the global coffee industry in less than a decade\, relying on wealth traced back to the Nazis to gobble up countless independent roasters. They will visit the Disneyland of agriculture\, where school children ride trams through mechanized warehouses filled with tens of thousands of cows that never see the light of day. And they will learn that in the food business\, crime really does pay—especially when you can bribe and then double-cross the president of Brazil. Barons paints a stark portrait of corporate consolidation\, but it also shows that a fair\, healthy\, and prosperous food industry is possible—if we take back power from the barons who have robbed us of it.\n\nRSVP HERE.

SUMMARY:Campesinas’ Reflections: Who struggled to produce your food?
DESCRIPTION:Dolores\, Beatriz\, and Hormis\, members of the Alianza Nacional de Campesinas\, spoke to the Harvard Law School community about their experiences.\nDolores Bustamante\, Beatriz Gatica\, and Hormis Bedolla\, members the Alianza Nacional de Campesinas\, shared their perspectives on their grassroots movement to promote the rights of female farmworkers. They spoke poignantly about the human rights abuses that form part of the everyday reality for female farmworkers\, including sexual assault\, domestic abuse\, unfair payment practices\, wrongful police detainment\, and exposure to dangerous pesticides. They have taken a stand\, as part of Mujeres Divinas\, to bring women together to inspire and empower them. \nAlianza de Campesinas’ mission is to unify the struggle to promote farmworker women’s leadership in a national movement to create a broader visibility and advocate for changes that ensure their human rights. \n\n\n\n\n\nAlianza Nacional de Campesinas is committed to securing social\, environmental\, and economic justice; prevention of violence against women issues; equality\, and healthier workplaces\, homes and communities for themselves\, their families and their communities. They are particularly concerned with ending workplace exploitation\, including sexual harassment\, against farmworker women and all farmworkers. In addition\, they are concerned about the anti-immigrant sentiment that exists in the United States and believe that laws and policies must be passed and/or enforced to ensure that all of those who live and work in the United States\, including farmworkers\, are free of bullying\, violence\, harassment and discrimination. \n \nSponsored by: Harvard Food Law Society\, La Alianza\, WLA Venture Fund\, ACS\, & the Harvard Food Law and Policy Clinic \n
