  • "This film documents the 1979 "Onion Strike" that occurred in Texas when the onion pickers protested their low wages and poor working conditions. The farmers refused the worker's demands, eventually deciding to either sell their property or purchase automated picking equipment. This was a devastating decision for the workers, farmers, and community."
  • "Hart Perry has documented the lives of Mexican-American migrant farm workers in Raymondville, Texas since 1979 when the onion workers' strike broke out. What followed was a fight not only for higher pay but also for equal rights and representation."
