In 1965, the government tried replacing migrant workers with high-schoolers. It was a disaster.
When the migrant-worker bracero program expired in 1965, the government recruited groups of high school male athletes to step into the fields. It was a disaster.
I can't get over the optimism on the faces of these high school boys. They had no idea the hell they were in for. For one summer, America acknowledged the grueling life of "stoop laborers" and our reliance on migrant labor.

The image is digital art made up to look like a two color linocut print. It features a geometric twisting snarling tiger. It's flanked by the text "Stay Angry" and "Bite Back" that follows the contours of the tiger.
Life advice for the ages. Those doing wrong want you tired and hopeless. But stay angry. And when a chance is in front of you: bite back.
Digital plans for a real linocut. I'm anxiously awaiting a press to make this stuff possible with my RSI in my hands.

a simple and graphic three-color drawing of a cat hanging from a tree branch, wailing in fear and misery. The text in the border around it says βHang in there baby. You can cry. You can cuss. But you gotta hold on.β
HANG IN THERE BABY!!
