I’m an ag guy. Almost all of the field and related labor where I live is Latinix. I regularly work with men and women who are way smarter than me who’s labor horizons are wildly proscribed by the kind of incipient racism that Steinbeck wrote about and that flourishes around here today. I know their kids, many of them. They deserve more than an even break. I’m hoping that this legislation goes at least a little way to providing them at least that.

Hey Jared, how’d you get into NYU again? Oh, yeah. Lucky you.
