In this episode, Manuel Machado, Martha Valle Hernandez, and Carl Wilmsen discuss what steps are being taken in order to improve working conditions for latinx forest workers in Oregon.
“You and I can change jobs if we don’t like the working conditions, but visa workers can’t… It’s a really big problem and it’s difficult. It’s systemic.”
– Carl Wilmsen, Director of the Northwest Forest Workers Center
