I guess I just feel pretty strongly that the lives of people who live in other countries are also very important

But the way it’s doing so might jeopardize the openness that’s kept podcasting from getting enshittified like every other form of media. It’s not too late for them to fix this. anildash.com/2026/02/28/a...

Noé was tired of seeing farm workers as landscape elements - he wanted to depict the fullness of their communities, not just stooped figures picking strawberries. In one community, he even published the portrait photos in a newspaper and distributed it with a parade.

I loved talking to the brilliant photographer Noé Montes, who has been making portraits of people in farm worker communities like the ones he grew up in. Noé went to community college and became a fine artist in middle age, and wanted to help people be seen.
