- Synopsis
- Migrant farm workers in the United States are routinely forced to live and work in unsafe, often desperate, conditions. Yet in one Florida town, farm workers organized themselves into the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, and launched a nationwide boycott campaign that forced McDonalds, Burger King, and Taco Bell to recognize their demands for workers' rights.
