Upright Farmer

“An exceptional book of paramount importance. Thoroughly researched and beautifully written, Luna draws on insightful and engaging ethnography to offer a brilliant analysis and rigorous critique of agricultural modernization in cotton production using the lens of racial capitalism. A desperately needed original empirical contribution to build and refine existing theory and to shift the terms of the problematic itself.”–Jordanna Matlon, author of A Man Among Other Men“An exceptional book of paramount importance.
