 Harvest of Shame

A TV documentary that exposed the harsh and exploitative conditions faced by migrant farmworkers in the U.S. It reveals how workers—many of them families with children—endured poverty wages, unsafe housing, child labor, and constant movement while remaining excluded from basic labor protections. The film contrasts America’s agricultural abundance with the invisibility and suffering of those who harvest the nation’s food, delivering a stark moral indictment of the system that allowed it.
CBS/Edward R. Murrow, 1960, 54 mins.
