Wilson NC - Activists with the Farm Labor Organizing Committee tour seasonal living facilities for farm workers at a local farming operation during the N.C. Pilgrimage for Peace and Justice. Summer temperatures can reach to over 100-degrees in eastern North Carolina. The Rock Ridge area farm is currently making improvements and is said to have better working conditions than most farms. The group is advocating for immigrant farm worker rights, social justice and humane working conditions. (Photo by Gray Whitley)
