Immigration, work and faith in the Midwest: Interview with Kristy Nabhan-Warren

Update: 2020-11-13

Description

Working at a meatpacking plant can be dangerous and exhausting. That is the reality of Latino and refugee workers in this industry, who turn to their faith to cope with the difficulties of the workplace. In this episode, Kristy Nabhan-Warren discusses her research with a community of mostly immigrant workers in the Midwest. We also talk about the surprises, messiness, and nuances that emerge in ethnographical research, and about feminist scholarship and teaching as a tool for liberation.
