The Migrant Project

I listen to KCRW's Good Food weekly, and while the focus of the show is (obviously) food, they also run interesting stories on the way food intersects with different areas of our personal lives, culture, and society.

Last week the host, Evan Kleiman, interviewed photographer Rick Nahmias, who spent time traveling with migrant workers in California. His work, called The Migrant Project, has now been published in book form. The interview is really interesting, if you have time to take a listen. (Scroll down if you only want to hear the interview with Rick Nahmias.)

This episode also has a story on colonics, which - after making your stomach turn - will make you want to go eat a salad.
