The plight of migrant farmworkers can be invisible, but that’s where Jesusa Rivera comes in. She grew up picking strawberries and potatoes with her family from Texas to South Bend, Indiana.

Enlighten

This podcast enlightened me to the injustice that happens in our country on a daily. The news reports we hear on the TV is a glimpse of a much bigger, much darker story.

But we also get to hear about ordinary people who made extraordinary move and making positive changes in the lives of the less fortunate during covid.

The queen

Love the current history and events of POC that are happening in this country. It is good and hopeful to see that we are taking care of each other. POC need and should work together as a team with a common goal, improvement of our races and a better live for future generations.

So good!
