MONROE — The Wisconsin Farmers Union, South Central Chapter, will host a free screening of the documentary “Little Pink House” Sunday, May 19. In order to raise awareness about the threat of eminent domain for private gain, the Farmers Union will show the movie, with discussion to follow from 1-3 p.m. at Club 48 in the Pleasant View complex, N3150 Wisconsin 81, Monroe.
“Little Pink House” is based on the true story of small-town paramedic Susette Kelo’s fight to save a blue-collar neighborhood from being bulldozed by the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer. Kelo emerged as the reluctant leader of her neighbors in a battle that went to the Supreme Court and inspired a nation.
This free event is part of the South Central Chapter’s 5th annual birthday celebration, which will begin at 12 p.m. with a potluck and meeting.
Meet local farmers and learn how they advocate for our rural communities.
