What's up, Moneda Moves community? No one should be left behind in our mission to achieve equal pay, even for Latinas. Yet, in 2024, the Latina pay gap widened for the first time in 20 years. That's impacting Latinas across the board and in most disparate ways our caregivers, mothers, farmworkers, and people working in hospitality. My time reporting out of NYC reminds me of a time when I covered farmworkers and activists marching 200 miles to Albany to demand basic workers' rights, including collective bargaining, workers' compensation, and unemployment benefits. This was finally granted in 2019 via the Farm Laborers Fair Labor Practices Act. This week's guest is Mónica Ramírez, an attorney, author, and activist. She is the founder of Justice for Migrant Women and co-founder of Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, The Latinx House, and Poderistas. Mónica has received numerous awards, including Harvard Kennedy School's first Gender Equity Changemaker Award, Feminist Majority's Global Women's Rights Award, and the Smithsonian's 2018 Ingenuity Award. She was named to Forbes Mexico's 100 Most Powerful Women's 2018 list, TIME Magazine's TIME100 Next list in 2021, and the Association of Latino Professionals for America's (ALPFA) Most Powerful Latinas list for 2024. Now more than ever, it's so important to be aware of the inequities our communities face at all levels and to call them out. If we are ever going to see the equal pay we deserve, we need to bring marginalized workers on this journey with us. That includes the farmworkers, janitors, and caretakers. At Moneda Moves, we applaud how our community is building generational wealth through entrepreneurship, leading companies, and career progression. But in our interview with Mónica, we discuss how the best way to move forward as a community and to close the wage gap is to respect individuals across industries that power our society in search of equity. There is no room for disparaging the same jobs that gave the next generation a leg up in the first place. In this week's episode, Mónica highlights why the pay gap is widening and what we can do to fix it. The fight for equal pay is a long road ahead, but we can start within our own communities. Latinas are making on average 51 cents on the dollar compared to our white, non-Hispanic colleagues. This pay gap is affecting Latinas in white-collar jobs and blue-collar alike. We have a lot of work to do to fix this, and Mónica is here to teach us how. No te lo quieres perder.

Crecimiento agrario y explotaciones campesinas en el noroeste ibérico medieval: León, siglos X-XII, Historia Agraria, 89, 2023 Este trabajo analiza ciertos aspectos del crecimiento agrario en los siglos X al XII en el norte de la Península Ibérica. En concreto, se centra en los mecanismos a través de los cuales los poderes señoriales estimularon e intervinieron en el proceso de expansión agraria: las concesiones contenidas en los fueros señoriales y los acuerdos de plantación. Se sostiene que, a través de estos medios, al mismo tiempo que se extendía el control señorial, también los campesinos pudieron obtener tierras y ampliar sus explotaciones a costa de la propiedad de los señores o de los espacios sin cultivar. Las posibilidades de este crecimiento no fueron análogas para todos los sectores del mundo campesino. Mientras que para los más pobres fueron medios para obtener una retribución por su trabajo, para los campesinos mejor dotados de recursos productivos pudieron suponer una forma de extender sus explotaciones rurales y reforzar su posición económica.

Some are US-born, others are recent immigrants, and still more have had family members here for centuries—living on land that was once part of Mexico. This week, Mónica Ramírez returns to Getting Curious to discuss how the Latine community is “deeply rooted” in the US, what it looks like to protect the humanity and dignity of these 62 million people, and why advocates like Mónica aren't simply showing up at spaces of consequence to address systemic issues—they're creating spaces of consequence.CW: This episode discusses bodily harm and hateful rhetoric.Mónica Ramírez is an attorney, author, and activist fighting for the rights of farmworkers,  migrant women workers, and the Latine(x) community.

Monica Ramirez, Activist Organizer, Founder of Justice For Migrant Women, and Co-Founder of Poderistas, The Latinx House and Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, talks to us through her journey that inspired her to ask questions at a very young age to her migrant farm working parents, “why are farm workers not celebrated when it's time to work in the fields, but fisherman in our town are welcomed back with celebration?” She pursued that question to become  “ The Voice of The People” in her hometown newspaper at the age of 14 when someone gave her that shot to write a column that would give visibility to the farm workers who came every year. What started as her curiosity and passion for writing, led her to her life's purpose as the daughter of migrant parents to be a social justice attorney for migrant farm workers and her projects, “The Humans That Feed Us” and her 15 year anniversary of “The Bandana Project”. Monica has also created pathways for change to the way Latinx is seen within the larger media lens, through The Latinx House and Poderistas, which has created a powerful advocacy circle of Latinas in Hollywood, such as America Ferrera, Eva Longoria, and Alexandria-Martinez Kondrake. As April is known as Sexual Assualt Awareness Month, (SAAM), she tells us of her protest letter for Time's Up Movement, which was later published in Time Magazine as “Dear Sisters” that became the reached into Hollywood's  storytelling foundations, such as Sundance and Netflix, that will be creating more open door opportunities for the Latinx community to be the writers and producers of our own stories. We need to tell our own stories, and now is our time. Monica is listed on Time's 100 list for 2021 and she is bringing us all with her.

«Hoy en día pocas son las investigaciones que, desde la historia, han destacado el papel de las campesinas, su trabajo y su contribución a la economía agraria» (Ortega y Cabana Iglesia, 2021: 9). La obra de Teresa María Ortega y Ana Cabana Iglesia «Haberlas, haylas» Campesinas en la historia de España en el siglo XX (Madrid: Marcial Pons, Ediciones de Historia, 2021) compila diferentes artículos publicados por ambas investigadoras en revistas académicas de impacto a lo largo de su carrera. Estos trabajos precisaban conversar, conectar diversidades geográficas de la mujer rural española, andaluza y gallega, desde principios del siglo XX hasta el siglo XXI, como muestran los períodos y variadas temáticas analizadas. Una recopilación necesaria y muy bienvenida desde diferentes disciplinas como la antropología, la historia agraria, la historia contemporánea o la propia historia económica. Su libro nos permite comprender hasta qué punto las campesinas han sido y siguen siendo unas grandes desconocidas para la historia de España, pero también para la historia de género donde se encuentra un vacío en la literatura sobre el papel y la vida de las campesinas (véase las causas analizadas por Sarah Whatmore en 1991). Para solventar estas deficiencias historiográficas las autoras nos brindan un análisis que nos permite construir una fotografía del femenino plural rural desde la historia, pero también desde la sociología y la antropología, una aproximación diacrónica de largo alcance con una visión sincrónica. Presentada por Elisa Botella-Rodríguez.

Fuertes y aún con esperanza, siguen buscando los restos de sus seres queridos. Se reunieron con paramilitares desmovilizados, perdonaron y juntas se apoyan para no desfallecer y finalmente encontrar con cada hallazgo algo de paz.

Mónica is dedicated to ending gender based violence in the workplace and achieving gender equity.  She created the first legal project in the US focused on addressing sexual harassment and other forms of gender discrimination against farmworker women in 2003, which was incubated at the Migrant Justice Project of Florida Legal Services. She later scaled this project and founded Esperanza: The Immigrant Women's Legal Initiative of the Southern Poverty Law Center in 2006, which she directed for nearly seven years. In addition, she created the award-winning Bandana Project, an art activism project that raises awareness about workplace sexual violence against farmworker women. In 2014, she founded Justice for Migrant Women, a national advocacy and technical assistance project focused on representing female farmworkers and other low-paid immigrant women who are victims of workplace sexual violence. Mónica is also co-founder of Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, The Latinx House and Poderistas. You can follow her on Twitter @monicaramirezOH and Instagram @activistmonicaramirez.

In this episode of Coffee Gals, we spoke to Miguel Mateo, Commercial Manager at Manos Campesinas, a fair trade coffee exporting cooperative in Guatemala and Felipe Gurdián, Sourcing Manager at Cooperative Coffees, an organization that imports coffee directly from producer-partners. During our chat, we cover a variety of important topics within the coffee trade industry, including how COVID-19 is impacting the lives of people who work and live in coffee-producing countries and what's being done to address some of these issues. There's a lot of information to take away from this episode. As consumers, it's important to be aware of the complete coffee journey, from bean to cup, and to continue to frequent roasters who source their coffee in sustainable ways. In addition, when we educate ourselves on some of the issues affecting the global coffee industry, we can make more informed purchasing decisions. Thank you to Equator Coffee Roasters for making this episode possible.

This story is a collaboration between The World and Reveal from the Center for Investigative Reporting. Listen to the latest episode of Reveal for more on this story.On a recent morning in Salinas, California, in the state's rural heartland, David Rivera and Alfonso Hernández worked shoulder to shoulder, installing irrigation pipes across freshly plowed fields that stretched to the horizon. Wearing jeans and sweatshirts with their hoods up to block the sun and dust, they prepared the fields for a spring planting of spinach, lettuce and broccoli. Nearby, a large billboard featured a man wearing leather gloves and a white cowboy hat, an irrigation pipe hoisted over his shoulder. It read: “Salinas Valley. Feeding Our Nation.”A version of this story originally aired on The World. Listen here. It was mid-March, the same week that US President Donald Trump declared a national emergency because of the novel coronavirus. By then, over 250 people had tested positive for COVID-19 in California. Gov. Gavin Newsom's statewide shelter-in-place order was imminent. Just an hour or so drive north in Silicon Valley, businesses and schools were shuttering, and hundreds of thousands of people began working from home.But for people like Hernández and Rivera, working from home was not an option. An estimated 2.5 million farmworkers across the United States are now deemed essential workers — exempt from shelter-in-place restrictions to keep the country's food supply flowing. California farms are vital to that system, producing a third of the country's vegetables and two-thirds of its fruits and nuts. At a time when social distancing and careful sanitizing are necessary safeguards, little has been done to protect farmworkers.Yet at a time when social distancing and careful sanitizing are necessary safeguards against exposure to the coronavirus, little has been done to protect farmworkers, many of whom are undocumented and work in remote, rural parts of the country with little access to health and social services."No, not yet,” Hernández said in mid-March, when asked whether he and his co-workers had met with their employer — Elkhorn Packing, a Salinas-based farm labor contractor — about workplace safety in the face of the coronavirus. “There should be a plan in place by now,” he said. But Rivera and Hernández, both from Mexico and unauthorized to work in the US, were hesitant to push the issue, grateful to have jobs. Many of their neighbors were already losing their jobs at restaurants, day care centers and hotels.COVID-19: The latest from The WorldAs they spoke, at the far side of the field, a crew of 20 men and women arrived to work in carpools, crammed into trucks and minivans. Armando Elenes, secretary-treasurer of the United Farm Workers of America, said he and his team have been surveying farmworkers informally for weeks, asking what messages they're getting from their employers. A March 24 poll of about 300 mostly nonunion farmworkers found that more than three-quarters had received no guidance from their employer on safer ways to work, Elenes said. He said many farmworkers, like Rivera and Hernández, are scared that without changes, they remain vulnerable to infection.“Rightfully so, because they're not being provided information,” Elenes said. “They're scared of losing the money. They're scared of getting infected.”He said it angers some farmworkers to be heralded now as essential, after those who are undocumented have lived with virulent anti-immigrant sentiment and threats of deportation from the Trump administration. “So when the government says they're essential workers,” he said, “the workers are responding, saying, ‘Now we're essential?'”  A sign in Salinas, California's rural heartland, which is home to tens of thousands of immigrant farmworkers.  Credit: Monica Campbell/The World Elenes said many immigrant farmworkers feel compelled to keep working, even while sick, aware that other jobs are drying up as the economic crisis deepens. A skipped paycheck means not only less money for their families in the US, but less support for family members in their home countries. “They're going to continue working because they don't feel that they have a choice. You know, bear with it, work through it,” Elenes said. “It's really distressing because these workers are the backbone of this country in terms of the food supply chain.”Hernández said that last week, long after the US had become the epicenter of the global pandemic, there had been a meeting with his boss at last. “We were told to wash our hands more,” he said.Related: Food supply logistics need a coronavirus 'reset,' says UN economistThat was it. No gloves or disinfectant supplies, he said. No conversation about avoiding crowded carpools to work, no changes to ensure more physical distance in the fields. Elkhorn Packing did not respond to an interview request. As of this week, there is no mention of the coronavirus on the company's website.Excluded from reliefThe $2.2 trillion Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, signed into law March 27, provides $9.5 billion for growers, ranchers and agricultural companies. Yet the legislation blocks many farmworkers themselves from seeking federal help. Nearly half of all farmworkers are unauthorized to work in the US, and the bill limits assistance to those with Social Security numbers.More than a million people deemed essential workers are ineligible for federal assistance from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act.That means more than a million people deemed essential workers are ineligible for the one-time cash payment of up to $1,200 that the federal government will issue in coming weeks. Many farmworker families will also be blocked from receiving the bill's $500 rebate per child if their parents lack a Social Security number. And unauthorized farmworkers are also unable to apply for unemployment insurance, which the aid package expanded by $600 a week for up to four months. Some members of Congress are seeking to make future coronavirus economic relief measures more inclusive. Rep. Jimmy Panetta, D-CA, whose district includes the Salinas Valley, co-sponsored a new bill in early April that, among other measures, loosens eligibility requirements so “workers, regardless of their immigration status, have access to health, nutrition, and financial aid during this crisis,” he said in announcing its introduction. “We're going to continue to fight for these protections,” Panetta said in a recent interview. The pandemic, he said, is “highlighting not just how valuable farmworkers are, but how vulnerable they are.” Panetta wants to see bolder moves as well, such as temporary legalization for essential workers who are undocumented.For now, the exclusion of many immigrants from federal relief will force hard choices. “If it's your only income and you don't really have access to unemployment, then you've got to keep working,” said Daniel Sumner, an economist at the University of California, Davis. “You're willing to do things you wouldn't do normally.”Related: How Japanese and Mexican American farm workers formed an alliance that made historyMore than two-thirds of farmworkers also lack health insurance.An earlier bill, the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, provided financial incentives for companies to provide paid sick leave, “ensuring that workers are not forced to choose between their paychecks and the public health measures needed to combat the virus,” according to the Department of Labor. Yet the new rules exclude companies with more than 500 employees, including such large agricultural employers as Elkhorn Packing. That means Hernández and Rivera won't be eligible. The new law also allows businesses with fewer than 50 employees to seek an exemption from providing paid sick days. “That means a lot of farmworkers will be left out of this paid-leave provision,” said Daniel Costa, director of immigration law and policy research at the Economic Policy Institute, a nonprofit think tank. Costa's research shows that most farmworkers are employed by small farms, and he expects that “the vast majority” of those farms will apply for the exemption.

Credit: Monica Campbell/The World The Agricultural Council of California, as well as California's largest growers — including Taylor Farms, Driscoll's, Bowles Farming, Bolthouse Farms, Swanton Berry Farm, Sábor Farms, The Wonderful Company and Grimmway Farms — did not respond to or declined interview requests for this story, as did officials with the state and federal departments of agriculture. However, some large farms have posted statements outlining their commitment to employee health and safety. Driscoll's, a berry giant based in Watsonville, California, states that it is following all “precautionary measures from social distancing to the basics of hand washing that have always been fundamental to our food safety standards. Rigorous reinforcement of food safety and worker standards are already in place within our network of independent growers and throughout our supply chain.”Related: The people who pick your berries in Washington will now be represented by a unionDave Puglia, president and CEO of Western Growers, a trade group that represents some 2,500 fruit and vegetable growers, said farmers are taking worker safety seriously.“We're all making as many changes we can as quickly as we can,” he said. “I am actually confident that farmers have been diligent in increasing all that they already do to protect workers in the fields in light of the coronavirus pandemic.”Some smaller farmers said they are offering their workers paid sick leave, even if they may not be required to do so under the new federal rules. Phil Foster, who runs organic farms in San Juan Bautista and Hollister, California, said he has expanded paid sick leave to over 60 hours for his 38 full-time employees. “My hope is that the folks on the farm are going to stay as healthy as they can, with maybe a few blips here and there,” he said. “We will continue to try and get fresh produce out to people in our community and our region.”Foster anticipates that his workers may soon need to wear face masks, as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended this month. He has a few coveted N95 masks on the farm, but not enough for everybody — and he can't find any online or anywhere else. So he's improvising. “My wife is a schoolteacher, and when she is not doing online classes, I'm seeing if she can sew up some masks,” he said. He is also asking one of the field workers, who also works as a seamstress, if she can sew some. “We're doing the best we can ...We realize none of these measures provide 100% security, but are best efforts with the information that we have available."Paul Muller, an owner of Full Belly Farm“We're doing the best we can,” said Paul Muller, an owner of Full Belly Farm, an organic farm near Sacramento, California. He recently changed policies so that crews no longer travel with more than one driver and one passenger in the trucks. He also expanded paid sick time to two weeks. “We realize none of these measures provide 100% security, but are best efforts with the information that we have available to date from our public health experts,” he said.Yet overall, farmers' responses appear uneven. Esmeralda Zendejas, an attorney with California Rural Legal Assistance, which serves many agricultural workers, said some growers were staggering work and break schedules so fewer employees were gathered together at the same time. But she is also receiving reports of troubling violations. “Just last week, we got a call from a worker who said there was no hand soap on the farm,” Zendejas said. “It's alarming because these violations have been occurring and now, with the crisis, we're seeing that continue with even higher risk for the worker. And these are just the workers who take the step to call us. We're sure that this is happening on a larger scale and workers are just not reporting for any number of reasons, including job insecurity.”Related: California hospital translates coronavirus information for immigrantsBrenda Eskenazi, a public health professor at the University of California, Berkeley, has helped lead extensive studies on the health of Latino farmworker families in California. She noted that even when hand-washing stations are provided, they are often set up too far away for frequent access. The time it takes to reach them can mean money lost. “It might be really difficult to wash your hands for 20 seconds and to do this multiple times a day, especially if you're getting paid by the basket of strawberries that you pick,” she said. “You might want to rush the process.” “Clearly, oversight is needed,” said California state Sen. Anna Caballero, a Democrat whose district includes the Salinas Valley. “There's no question about it. We don't have a system that says, ‘Here are the new rules that everybody has to work under, and here is the oversight in place to make sure that the rules are followed.'” Improvising to mitigate riskWith few protections in place, field workers are doing what they can to protect themselves. Claudia Isarraz, 43, lives with her husband and two US-born teenage sons in Greenfield, a small town near Salinas. Isarraz belongs to Líderes Campesinas, an advocacy group of female farmworkers in California, and works for $13 an hour pruning grapes at nearby vineyards, which have remained open, as the agricultural industry as a whole has been labeled essential. Weeks before the state imposed the shelter-in-place order, she said she began washing her hands more at work and encouraging her co-workers to do the same.  Claudia Isarraz, of Greenfield, California, says she tries to keep distance from her co-workers as they work in the fields. She no longer carpools and shoulders the cost of driving alone to the fields. Credit: Monica Campbell/The World She is also trying to put distance between herself and co-workers who appear sick. Recently, she said, a 65-year-old co-worker was coughing and sneezing while hunched over the crops. “I asked her, ‘Shouldn't you be home?' ” Isarraz said. The woman waved her off. “She told me it was her allergies.” Isarraz moved to another row in the field, doing what she could to protect herself from any potential exposure.Although it was an expensive decision, Isarraz canceled her carpool, which used to involve packing in five or six people to share the cost of gas. As of late March, she said, “I'm going to work on my own, driving on my own.”But not everyone can do that. On the outskirts of Greenfield, where paved streets give way to dirt roads, a long row of modest single rooms are lined up, one after another, across from vast fields. Their beige walls and doors match the earth. Nicolás Merino González lives in room 13. Still in his late 20s, he looks older than his years after a life of outdoor work. In mid-March, Merino was still heading to the fields by cramming himself into the cab of a pickup with other workers. On a recent morning commute, Merino said, a fellow passenger could not stop coughing. “It was like that for four days,” he said. “I thought, ‘It's not good that he's going to work sick now.' But staying behind means a lost day for him.” Nicolás Merino González, a farmworker in Greenfield, California, wires money back to his wife and three children in the Mexican state of Oaxaca. Social distancing is tough for Merino, who carpools to work in a cramped pickup. Credit: Monica Campbell/The World Merino understands the pressure to work. He works in the spinach and lettuce fields of Greenfield in order to wire money back to his family in the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca, more than 2,000 miles away. The $13.50 an hour he earns is an economic lifeline for his three young children, paying for food and utilities. He is the family's sole breadwinner. On a recent day off, Merino rested outside of his room, which he rents for $260 a month. The room is small, with just enough space for a single bed. A half-full bottle of rubbing alcohol sat on a nightstand. “I use it to clean my hands,” he said. “If I get a cold, I'll rub it on my face.” For soap, Merino uses a single bright pink bar, shared by all the other lodgers, in their communal bathroom. The kitchen and showers, too, are shared. Social distancing is difficult.Roger Tenanuque, the caretaker of the lodging house, grew up in Greenfield and now lives three doors down from Merino. Although he earns little more than cash-strapped renters like Merino, Tenanuque does his best to keep things stocked. He buys soap and paper towels with his own money, he said. When asked whether he thought the renters here would stay home from work if they felt ill, he said, “I don't think so.” Roger Tenanuque is the caretaker for a cluster of single rooms rented by men who work in the fields near Greenfield, California. He rents a room in the complex himself, where residents eat and bathe in communal areas. Credit: Monica Campbell/The World Merino hopes to avoid making a tough choice. He said he has never called in sick in the United States and has never visited a hospital here. “I have been in Mexico, where I have insurance,” he said. “But I don't have that here.”The next challenge for Merino and other farmworkers may be less work. Several field workers said they were already seeing a cutback in hours in the past weeks. Areceli, 41, who asked to use only her first name because she is undocumented, cleans lettuce and spinach leaves near Greenfield. Last week, she was asked to work eight hours a day instead of her typical nine. Other farmworkers also said their hours were reduced. Related: These migrant workers are telling their stories through comic books“We're seeing losses of hundreds of millions of dollars per week easily in the fresh produce industry,” said Puglia, of Western Growers. “Restaurants, but also schools and universities, hotels and resorts — think of Las Vegas, for example — have all shut down for the most part. And that means that farmers, whose customers are in the food service supply chain, are in a really tough spot.”Caballero, the state senator, mentioned other signs that the industry is under stress. This week, she said, strawberry producers told her of canceled contracts with grocery stores and deliveries being turned away. Growers told her that they ended up donating the perishable berries to food banks. Related: How immigrant workers are preparing for automation in agricultureCaballero said there is “great consternation” among growers about consumer demand for their summer harvests.“I'm hearing about more cuts in hours, and I'm bracing myself for more,” Areceli said. She is not sure what she will do. She knows she's not allowed to apply for unemployment and won't qualify for any cash assistance from the federal government — even the $500-per-child benefit. “If they want to leave me out of that, fine, but it's unfair to leave out my two kids just because I don't have the right papers,” she said. “They are US citizens.” At the same time, Areceli observed something new this week: “I'm seeing moms and dads coming to the fields, asking if there is work. It's noticeable.” She wondered whether they had lost other jobs amid the mass layoffs roiling the state and were now heading out to the fields to find work.Reporter and producer Anayansi Diaz-Cortes contributed to this story. It was edited by Esther Kaplan and copy edited by Nikki Frick.
