In the 60's, my Dad and Uncle worked the sugar cane fields in Palm Beach county Florida. By the start of the 70's both families were living in Fort Lauderdale. As a child I didn't know how bad it was, how we were. But my Dad and Uncle carried us through it and made it so we didn't have to suffer. Thank you Dad Thank you Unc 👏👏👏
The inside of that old women’s “house” was just dreadful. She’s living near the 1980’s like it’s the 1880’s. No indoor plumbing, no electricity assuming. What this story centers in is free association, as in, people have the right to see other people, such as workers and union organizers. Along with false generosity. How is it “generous “ to demean that old women into living practically in a different century, no pension. What would be generous is to set up a monthly stipend and get her a little apartment in town that’s actually modern, or modern in 1978. What I’m seeing is almost a parallel between the sugar cane field system and the system against Amazon workers. They way Amazon violates free association and union busts has some similarities to what the cane processing companies did. I have no sought that if they wouldn’t get much blowback, Amazon would set up worker housing, and pay them in an Amazon currency only good at Amazon.
Heres a great example of why Karma doesn't really exist. If it did exist who should get a taste of it ? Yeah.....exactly.. We psyc ourselves into Karma. But the people who should be getting it never even think of karma.
Jesus. Where are these people now. The more you hear about America the more you think. Why do they think America is such a privileged nation over other western countries? Because it isn't.
N the same for americans that were pow's doing forced labor for Japancar companies that sell millioners of cars in the usa, an Chucky Keating who donated money to Jessie Jackson when he ran for president so hoping his group could stay in charge of Hud housing.
I am so glad I found this 60 minutes episode. That is so sad.

It would be interesting to have 60 Minutes do an update of this story in 2021. Wonder what, if anything, has changed.
probably undocumented migrant workers working the fields and living in decrepit conditions
@@fascinatinglist9654 Exactly.
Now they make $3.00 an hour.
I agree

We need an update on this story. Please 60 minutes.
That one land owner is cold hearted af! I hope his family looked back at this and told him he was disgusting. I know i would.
he was operating at break even or a loss - what was he supposed to do?
Thank you. This memory will never erase from their mind. One day, they will be free indeed.
The story is not about migrant workers, it's about Black American farm workers who have worked that sugar land for generations.
Absolutely incredible. Really all I could say.
15:19 her answer “Not much” was pretty chilling
"The more things change, the more they remain the same"
Now all we use is corn syrup.
Guyana has few of what use to a lot of the Dutch west Indian tea company.
I owe my soul to the company store ... and what's different in 2021?
THAT'S ABOUT THE SUM OF IT🤠👍🇺🇸
Amazon.

And here we are thinking we got it bad!! I could not imagine working in a field all day long for a couple dollars a day! 😢
This is bondage and oppression.
😔😔😔😔
I grew up in Appalachia and the coal mines did the same thing to miners. It’s always the almighty dollar in America.
She's there at the GENEROSITY OF the boss.
SHARE CROPPED STILL EXIST TODAY 2021 😰😭💦
All I can say is, Lord have mercy, help them in the name of Jesus! Amen.
I can only wish slavery never was so sad for those that had to endure something like this !
This is crazy
This is so sad to see. The video was from the 70s though right? Has anything changed since the 70s?

That’s why we need reparations for black Americans who built America.
