Walking through Moseley this week, has someone awkwardly asked to cut out your T-shirt tag?
Standing in line at a trendy, overpriced T-shirt store have you ever thought, “I wonder who made this fabulous piece of clothing?”
Are you at all interested in the evolution of a T-shirt, the craftsmanship that goes into it, or what social issues are involved?
Have you ever WORN a T-shirt?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, plan to attend the “Who Made Your Shirt?” Fair Trade Symposium, hosted by ¾Ã¾ÃÈÈ for Peace and Justice, the Love School of Business, and the Truitt Center.
Monday Feb 18, 6 pm: Pietra Rivoli, author of best-selling “Travels of a Tee Shirt in a Global Economy”
Wednesday Feb. 20, 6 pm: Jim Keady, expert on global labor practices.
Thursday Feb 21, 6 pm: Industry and faculty panel discussion on free trade in North Carolina.
All will be held in KBC 101
Mark your calendar and we hope to see you there!
