California is almost 40% Latinx (that is over 15 million people!). It is also where so much of the country’s agriculture happens, and where oil extraction operates dangerously close to schools, homes, and hospitals. Facing the simultaneous challenges of fossil fuel racism and being in the center of the climate crisis (experiencing extreme heat, fires, climate migration), Kern County farmworker communities are facing interconnected and deliberate capitalist crises on all fronts. This mini series explores what is happening and why, and what we can do about it.Related Collections:Planeta G - Season 2: Kern County, California (Photos & Video)
