The antipathy for the Department of Education is the most enduring relic of the cause that birthed the modern GOP: not having to go to school with Black people.
THIS is what courage looks like.Today, striking farmworkers bravely stood in front of cameras, the community, and the press, risking their jobs, safety, and future. To speak the truth. About the stolen wages. About the years of being unheard. This is a movement. And today was a turning point.

The tomato season is going full blast in quick start CA's Central Valley. Work starts at 5am which means many workers get up at 3am to drive one hour to the site. The early start time is to beat the heat as 100°+ temps are common. It's not easy but it pays their rent. #WeFeedYou

"Ana's" picked blueberries for 20 yrs. "It's hard work. My hands get scratched from dry branches & burn once I start sweating in the heat. I get $7/bucket in May-June's peak season. When a row has lots of fruit it goes well. But many days it's hard to make enough." #WeFeedYou
Life at the RV park: my first yellow watermelon!
Nothing says #July4 like a big juicy slice of watermelon. This yummy fruit doesn't just appear on our picnic table. It takes a lot of work. An average watermelon weighs 20 pounds. Can you imagine harvesting them in a 98° Bakersfield area field like these workers?
⚡️UPDATE: Russia's mass missile and drone strike on Kyiv injures at least 23. The attack damaged apartment buildings, businesses, a school, a medical facility, railway lines, and other civilian infrastructure in multiple districts. Fires blazed across the city, making the air dangerous to breathe.

Ever wonder where the tomato on your #July4th burger comes from? These Central Valley tomato harvesters spend hours bent over under the sun harvesting. On an average they lift around 170 buckets a day. Each bucket weighs 25 lbs. It’s exhausting, physical labor. #WeFeedYou
Tomorrow, as we enjoy our #July4 BBQ, remember farm workers are harvesting in sweltering in dangerous heat - while being terrorized by ICE. Today's highs are projected at: Arvin CA 105° Fresno CA 103° Coachella CA 105° Yuma AZ 105° #WeFeedYou
