Description:
Explore the critical role of immigrant and migrant farm workers in the U.S. agricultural industry and the challenges they face in this hour-long conference talk. Delve into the social, economic, and structural barriers that exploit these workers and push families to the margins, including food insecurity, economic immobility, and dangerous working conditions. Examine the impact of undocumented status, COVID-19, and climate change on farm workers' lives. Learn about organizations forging a new vision for an agricultural industry that values both the land and its workers. Discuss why improving farm workers' conditions should be a legal, economic, and moral imperative. Cover topics such as housing issues, historical context, Asian Americans in agriculture, climate change effects, health crises, pollution, women's roles, and initiatives like the Fair Food Program and the Mother Earth Project.
