Historically agricultural employers attributed Latino worker preference for farm labor, not because of economic necessity, but because they were genetically &#8220;built lower to the ground,&#8221; it was supposedly &#8220;easier for them to stoop.&#8221; More common [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=josemalamillo.wordpress.com&amp;blog=2598478&amp;post=47&amp;subd=josemalamillo&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
