Do not tackle structural inequities and bad laws that creates unjust working conditions. Instead offer mangoes and photos. What is not to love about such elegant experiments that only brilliant economists can come up with. Abusive employers of the world must love this paper 😂

Just received translated text of add'l letters from WWII #forcedlaborers. I'll be sharing in coming weeks/months. They are heartbreaking yet hopeful.
