The 2020 Series, The History of Human Rights in Canada, begins on September 18, 2020 with a lecture from Dr. Edward Dunsworth (McGill University), titled &#8220;Inclusion, Exclusion, and Migrant Farm Labour in Canada&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Abstract: The history of farm labour in Canada has been profoundly shaped by questions of inclusion and exclusion \u2013 especially at the border. Drawing on transnational research on Ontario\u2019s tobacco workforce and looking in particular at migrations from the southern United States and the Caribbean, this talk will demonstrate how often-racist immigration policies and labour practices determined not only who could enter the Canadian farm labour market, but also the conditions of workers\u2019 participation and their ability to attain a decent livelihood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Edward Dunsworth<br>\nAssistant Professor<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Department of History and Classical Studies<br>\nMcGill University<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CLICK TO REGISTER FOR THIS LECTURE<\/strong>&lt;<a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/shannonlectures2020\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/shannonlectures2020<\/a>&gt;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_event_type":[],"cu_event_audience":[],"class_list":["post-3710","cu_event","type-cu_event","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"cu_event_start_date":"2020-09-18T12:00:00","cu_event_end_date":"2020-09-18T13:00:00","cu_event_location_type":"in-person","cu_event_meeting_address_type":"on-campus","cu_building":false,"cu_event_meeting_room":"","cu_event_meeting_address_full":null,"cu_event_virtual_type":"tbd","cu_event_virtual_meeting_link":"","cu_post_thumbnail":false,"cu_event_cost":"","cu_event_registration":"","cu_event_secondary_button":"","cu_event_contact_name":"","cu_event_email":"","cu_event_phone":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/3710","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/3710\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3710"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_event_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_type?post=3710"},{"taxonomy":"cu_event_audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/politicaleconomy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_audience?post=3710"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
