Abstract
Section II highlights the work of Caroline Savage, a student in Dr. Sara Withers’ ANTH 411 Honors: An Introduction to Cultural Anthropology, in the Fall of 2024. Savage’s ethnography review of Fresh Fruit, Broken Bodies by Seth Holmes, is thorough and timely, and details the ways in which Holmes, a physician-anthropologist, wields the notion of violence to explain the experiences of migrant farmworkers in California, Washington, and Oaxaca, Mexico. As a conclusion to her review, Savage adeptly draws connections between Holmes’ ethnographic data and theoretical arguments about the work and lives of these immigrant communities, and the present and future economic stability and migration policies of the United States.
