Exploitation producing vegetables for the US.

This is a very insightful documentory into the lives of workers in Mexico who grow vegetables for Mexican and US markets. Beware Americans, some of your vegetables are grown by these people. They are subjected to varying degrees of exploitation, bad labour conditions, poor wages, and sometimes, literal slavery.

But you don't really care where vegetables come from. Why should you care?
If you are an American, your country abolished slavery, and is not the most powerful and prosperous nation on earth, but every restaraunt, every high rise building, every clothing store, every accomplishment in America is still built on the backs of slaves.
I wonder, will the US will ever cease to be a land built on the backs of slaves?

If you are human, you are related to these people. These children picking chillies in the feild. The little boys who will never drive their dream car and possably never own a car at all. The little girls who sit in a hot, dark room all day, who can't read or write or go to school. Their mother who hurts every time she leaves them there, but is terified somebody will kidnap or harm them and has no other option. Imagine the shame within her that she can't do any better for her children. That isn't soley her fault, it's societies problem. We allow a situation to exist where these children will never be able to do anything more than pick whatever vegetable and take whatever meagre amount they can get to feed their families if we cannot change their cicumstances.
