Their faces weather-beaten, their bodies gaunt, the workers showed the toll of long days spent in the punishing sun of a Louisiana crawfish farm.
They had had enough.
Seated inside a McDonald’s beside Interstate 10, they described their plight to labor organizers: They were being terribly underpaid. Some had had their immigration papers seized. All of them were being housed in squalid facilities with tap water that came out brown, too dirty to drink or even bathe in.
The chorus of complaints voiced at the fast-food joint in the heart of Cajun country, and later to federal authorities, set in motion a four-year legal battle between the Mexican-born crawfish harvesters and their employers.
It ended a few months ago with a significant overhaul of American labor and immigration policy that affords new protections for migrant workers who blow the whistle on workplace abuses. | |

After finding that sleep twitches in early development aren’t caused by activity in the cortex, Blumberg increasingly wondered whether it might be the other way around—perhaps the twitches were sending signals to the brain. Hardly anyone had considered this possibility, because it was assumed that the blockade would keep sensations out. | |
