2:04Now PlayingTulane University professor Jana Lipman teaches a class on agricultural labor in the United States since 1930 and the rise of organic farming. She describes the "bracero" program, which brought temporary workers from Mexico in the 1940s and 50s, and farm worker strikes under leaders such as César Chávez. She argues that despite the rise in consumer awareness relating to organic food, working conditions are not always considered a factor in what people buy.
