People of color are often limited to low-wage jobs in the food industry, especially recent and undocumented immigrants who find seasonal work harvesting crops in the fields. Food chain workers suffer low wages and exploitative conditions. Further, many lack access to healthy food and are food insecure. This paper explores the universe of workers that populate the food chain, from seed to table, and maps the race, class, and gender of food workers. This is a baseline from which the food justice movement can dream of a new supply chain, one that sustains and nourishes its labor, as well as its consumers.
