    Very revealing. It’s hard to believe that issues that were present when I was in grade school in the 40′s are still being tolerated today. It is heartbreaking. Another area of shame for which our country is responsible. I was left with many questions. Thank you for this documentary.

    I fell on my knees in prayers after watching this powerful video. Well done. Keep it up. I would understand some of the farmworkers’ conditions as I was a laborer in a refugee camp in Indonesia in 1979, as an immigrant dishwasher and worm-picker in Canada in 1980, and now as an immigrant pastor in the U.S. since 2003. Blessings,

  7. This was so powerful! I’m amazed and ashamed that there are so many similarities between 1960 and 2010. This documentary does so much in making this “invisible” population/issue seen. Wow. And I have so much respect for the people working to make a difference. Thank you for sharing this story…

    A week ago “We Do” here in Asheville and tonight this! I am struck with how much there us to be done for justice!

  8. I find it particularly said that there is so little involvement of the church denouncing these situations of injustice and esploitation and when there is someone that posts important articles and news like this there is such a small audience, needless to say people with comments or questions.
    I just hope for a better future for agricultural workers and enlightening for those of us that are full of apathy for the suffering of others.
    God bless!!

    This video is so heart wrenching and very powerful. As a resident of the Commonwealth of Virginia, I have recently joined my church’s ministry to assist the farm workers and their families who live in Virginia’s Eastern Shore. It will be my first time as a volunteer, and I hope to affect their lives in a very positive and productive way. Thank you for creating this documentary. May God Bless you, your team and the entire farmworkers and their families who live in this country.
