"Edwin Fruit, a worker at IBP (an Iowa meatpacking plant) in Perry, talking about Pathfinder," reads the caption on this photograph that appeared under the title "Workers' Bookstore" in the April 20 issue of El Enfoque (Focus), a Spanish-language newspaper in Perry, Iowa.
The accompanying article reports that books in Spanish on labor struggles, gains, and rights of workers are available to the public in the Des Moines Pathfinder bookstore. Weekly forums are organized at the store, which also offers a wide range of books, magazines, and newspapers in English, added the reporter.
