What everyone gets WRONG about farm work
Farmworkers are keeping all of us fed – amid a historic pandemic, wildfires and waves of deportations in the U.S. But some still insist on calling them “unskilled” or “low-skilled.” In this James Beard Award-winning documentary, AJ+’s Yara Elmjouie travels to Salinas, California, to learn firsthand why farm work is A LOT more difficult, complex – and yes, skilled – than we might imagine.
