02 Triqui Farm Workers at Home
The home of the family of Alberto Martinez and Rufina Perez, Triqui migrant farm workers, in a plywood shack in the fields outside Hollister. Triquis are one of the many indigenous groups of southern Mexico, and many people have migrated from their hometowns to California to work in the fields as farm workers. Pictured: Rufina Perez and her baby Silvana Martinez.
