As we prepare to meet in Colombia for our annual conference, here are two videos on the impending US -Colombia Free Trade Agreement, negotiated in 2006 but only now coming to the U.S. Congress for final ratification before its August recess. The following videos from the US Office on Colombia, a non-profit group, discuss the impacts of the FTA for Afro-Colombian and indigenous communities, and for small-scale farmers and workers.
