The poorest paid workers in America are the ones most likely to be cooking your food and washing your dishes. Saru Jayaraman tells their stories with searing analysis and vital compassion in this landmark book. She shows how the most exploited aren't just victims, but survivors organizing for dignity and safety in the food system. And in so doing, she helps us understand that sustainable food isn t just about how organic or local the food is, but how high workers can hold their heads. Raj Patel, bestselling author of The Value of Nothing and Stuffed and Starved
