The Fight for Water: A Farm Worker Struggle

This documentary does a great job of shedding light on an important issue that many people aren't aware of. If you live in California, you should make it a point to watch this. It has good pacing and kept my attention, even though this particular issue doesn't directly affect me. It's always important to see both sides of every argument. This is a great example of what can happen when we don't take a close look at the consequences of political action before casting our vote. In an effort to save salmon, Californians voted to cut off the flow of critical water to many of the farmers in the central valley, creating some pretty serious problems.
