The Dartmouth Medical School migrant health interest group is sponsoring a screening of the 30-minute film "Silenced Voices" this coming Tuesday (4/19) at 7:30pm in Chilcott auditorium. Afterwards, the filmmakers will lead a short discussion exploring the politics and economics that brought the farmworkers to Vermont. Several medical students who have been involved in providing healthcare to the workers will be on hand to answer questions about how Dartmouth students can be involved in migrant worker issues.
