"Maria" is rolling up raisins under the hot Madera sun. To earn $70, she has to roll 1,000 sheets! Each row has around 250 sheet. It's hard grueling work walking on the burning sand for hours rolling one sheet after another. #WeFeedYou

I love that you highlight these amazing farm workers & make viewers see them as individual human beings.

Bravo, Maria!

(I literally could not stay bent like that for more than 10 minutes.)

Where are all the Americans who were whining that immigrants are stealing their jobs? You'd think you'd see people out there left and right, Americans, doing the jobs that Americans won't do for a paycheck, LOL.

This is truly grotesque. Teachers should not be using this stuff. If a school was pushing it on teachers who work with kids I care about, I'd make a big effing stink until they stopped. We have to not give into this.

"Information shapes perceptions, drives alliances, corrodes trust, and determines the resilience and power found in democracies." Why does Putin understand and exploit this better than we do?

Mass transit saves animals, reduces climate change and reduces noise pollution. It also makes it so people don't have to have cars so it saves people money.

Girls in The Windows-Ormond Gigli
"In 1960, while a construction crew dismantled a row of brownstones across from my own brownstone studio on East 58th St I was inspired to, somehow immortalize those buildings. I had a vision of 43 women in formal dress adorning the windows of the skeletal facade."
