📌 We're seeing plenty of footage of the devastation from Hurricane Otis of tourist areas and beachfront properties. But the working class neighborhoods and rural towns around Acapulco is where tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, have gone days without food, water, electricity, or any kind of acknowledgment or presence from local, state or federal government.

On Friday, people came in to the tourist areas of Acapulco from these towns and neighborhoods blocking roads, holding signs, and protesting for basic supplies.

The government of Mexico said on Thursday that 27 people have died, but widespread reports on social media seem to show that the number of dead and missing is most likely much greater than that--this may turn out to be one of the biggest tragedies in Mexico's history. Yet people don't seem to be aware at the moment.

Here's an interview originally from @MLopezSanMartin for @adn40 that I've added English subtitles to so more people in the U.S. can see what's happening right now.

Juan sent this photo from where he was picking peaches in Fresno CA. On this day the temp reached 101°. His bag weighs about 50 pounds when full of fruit. He climbs up and down the ladder dozens of times a day to empty the bag into a big bin. #WeFeedYou #Calor

Abel's a truck driver in the Bakersfield CA area grape harvest. Once the grapes have been picked & packed, he & his team mate load the hundreds of boxes onto the trailer. Depending on the variety, the boxes easily weigh 20 pound each. The high this day was 106°. #WeFeedYou #Calor

39 personas murieron quemadas mientras se encontraban encerradas bajo llave.

Terrible muerte para quienes cometieron el delito de buscar un lugar mejor.

Felix is a strawberry farm worker in Oxnard. Typically by late February the weather permits a harvest that yields higher earnings. But recent rains have drastically reduced his earnings. #WeFeedYou

Lupe sent us this vid from where she's harvesting radishes in Oxnard CA, saying: I earn $1.60/box. Each box has 60 bunches. All piece rate workers are poorly paid. Hourly work wages goes up, but piece rate doesn’t increase, so it doesn’t barely amounts to anything. #WeFeedYou

These trees will not produce enough fruit in the summer if these highly skilled pruning crews don’t work through the winter. It’s people like Raul who are out in the fields every day, regardless of the weather, that keep food on our tables. #WeFeedYou

Jose is pruning apple trees in the Yakima Valley this winter. He earns minimum wage and often faces extreme winter weather conditions in the orchards. #WeFeedYou
