⚠️ ⚠️ Trigger Warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics, including child labor & human trafficking. ⚠️ ⚠️

In this eye-opening episode of Capital Wasteland, we bring you the truth no matter how bad it hurts as we confront a harsh reality. As it is now this often remains hidden beneath the beauty of our food supply: the troubling labor injustices plaguing the agriculture industry. From exploitative labor practices to child labor, human trafficking, and anti-union sentiments, we shine a light on the dark underbelly of the fields.

Join us as we uncover the stories of those who toil to bring food to our tables, often under appalling conditions. We'll discuss the systemic challenges that perpetuate these injustices and explore how they impact not only the workers but also the quality of the food we consume.

Listen in to gain a deeper understanding of the labor issues within agriculture and join us in the fight for fair and humane practices. Together, we can cultivate a more just and sustainable future for all. More Information:
