Spring of Discontent: Mexican Berry Pickers Strike for a Bigger Share of Profits
In a major agro-export region four hours south of the U.S-Mexican border, berry pickers went on strike May 28 to demand a bigger share of the profits they produce. Over the following week, protests and strikes erupted on farms throughout the San Quintín valley, a major source of berries, tomatoes, chilies, and cucumbers. A second wave of strikes began June 30.
