Screening of “Stolen Photo”

March 12 @ 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

One hundred years ago, banana workers went on strike in Colombia. A US-owned fruit company refused to negotiate. A massacre ensued. This is the story of how the company and the Colombian military used a photograph to identify workers, and how the violence of December 1928 mutated into oblivion.

Presenter: Kevin Coleman (University of Toronto)
Moderator: Juan Velasquez (New York University)
