Abstract

This article situates my experiences as an active ally with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW) and their four-year US boycott of Taco Bell (2001–2005) within the history of US migrant farmworker activism. It traces the boycott from nationwide kick-off to victory. An overarching theme is the impact of globalization on the lives of migrant farmworkers and the borders that define them.
