Brown Bag Lecture Series Continues at UA Oct. 4

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. -- The UA Women’s Resource Center and women’s studies department are sponsoring the second Brown Bag Series of the semester at 12:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 4 in 107 Manly Hall.

The PBS film “Maid in America” will be shown in recognition of National Hispanic-Latino Heritage Month.

The documentary looks at the lives of three Latina women who have come to America as domestic workers in hopes of a better life. It shows the struggles and triumphs that each woman faces and the diversity of their lives as they work toward the American dream.

All members of the campus and community are invited. Programs typically last an hour and participants are welcome to bring their lunch and a friend.
