- 요약The U.S.'s agricultural workforce is historically rooted in colonization, and its systems of oppression remain. The U.S. agricultural sector relies heavily on agricultural migrant workers, and Florida has a history of (im)migrant labor. Currently, agricultural migrant workers operate in various systems of oppression, including social, health, and environmental inequities, all of which have been worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate who the people of agricultural migrant workers are through means of creative non-fiction portraits. Topics of their COVID-19 experiences, the agricultural workforce they are a part of, and their perceptions of climate change were explored. To contribute to dismantling coloniality, decoloniality, muted group theory, and decolonial intersectionality were operationalized in this study's portraiture design and analysis. Ten participants participated in interviews and co-constructed their creative non-fiction portraits. Within this study, I used inspirations from post qualitative inquiry to assist in data representation and analysis. Participants were often devalued, had their humanity questioned, and negotiated their survival, especially during COVID-19. Participants were able to resist the oppressions of coloniality through their families, faith, pride, and love. The portraits assist in making the living of agricultural migrant workers visible and seen as individuals. The co-constructed portraits can be deployed in various settings, including Extension bridge audiences in learning about the agricultural migrant worker populations and providing educational content for workers to help sustain the workforce. The portraits can encourage members of community organizations that promote farmworker advocacy and social justice.
