According to Chicago Fair Trade’s Katherine Bissell-Cordova, fair trade products are more accessible than ever before. Even big businesses are catching on. So this year, the Chicago Fair Trade Expo is being held beneath the shadow of the biggest retailers on Chicago’s Magnificent Mile. 

Worldview is broadcasting live from the event at Fourth Presbyterian Church. We talk with Jamie Hayes, the “Queen of Slow Fashion,” Andrea Dennis, Greenheart outreach director, Anne-Michele Boyle, teacher at Whitney Young High School, and Rev. Vicki Curtiss, associate pastor at Fourth Presbyterian.
