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 Students 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!
