- catalog abstract ""Largely ignored by mainstream America, migrant laborers - who are largely Hispanic, Haitian, and other Caribbean immigrants - often toil under adverse labor and living conditions to provide the nation's food supply. Combining oral history and documentary photography, Nano Riley and Davida Johns tell the story of Florida's farmworkers in the twenty-first century - not only the difficulties they face but also the rich cultural heritage they have within their communities and family life." "Focusing on the history of Florida agriculture and its unique climate, ecology, crops, and working conditions, Riley and Johns distinguish the situation of Florida's farm laborers from those in other states. Among the issues addressed are low wages, substandard living conditions, health, pesticide exposure, education, problems specific to children, and immigrant smuggling. Through intimate images and lucid text, Riley and John draw attention to a labor system greatly in need of reform."--Jacket.".
