This is a beautiful photograph, taken in the morning light, side Long and warm rays of sun on these deliciously, vibrant tomatoes. Here's to the UFW, and to all the workers in the field, & to the workers in the field of yesterday, like my own family.
Using cheap labor from poor nations. Workers with no rights and proper documentation. Every fruit and vegetable comes from a sad background of oppression, betrayal and forced labour. I don't blame the famers, i blame the big supermarkets who dictate the prices to them.
We need to hold employers accountable for their actions. Unfortunately, real change is unlikely because these employers are the ones financing the American GOP politicians.
These employers pay these hardworking women and men substandard wages. Knowing they cannot complain.
Grateful, thankful, and blessed for their under-appreciated hard work. Thank you!
Blessings to all of them and their families during this Thanksgiving holiday. 🙏
I loved Clare McCaskill today, saying, say goodbye to guacamole because the only people that are going to be able to afford it will be Elon Musk and his children named after mathematical equations. Not her exact words, but close.
This is US right? Here in my Nordic country there are many great Ukrainian and Thai farmworkers who work in the business very hard. Lets not forget it is a global thing.

Elon is an immigrant. He wasn't born in America or to American parents.
Trump's # wife isn't American... She's an immigrant.

I don't think it's the right way to get food or have workers
The path ahead should be legislation to give them legal status, not pushing them out and having a labor shortfall
We have a very low unemployment rate atm, so who will fill those millions of jobs?
Not sure why everyone must learn things the hard way...
Blessings to all of them and their families during this Thanksgiving holiday. 🙏
