Fresh Fruit, Broken Bodies: Migrant Farmworkers in the United States is an ethnographic and public anthropology study by medical anthropologist Seth Holmes. Centered on Triqui migrant farmworkers from southern Mexico, the book examines how migration, labor exploitation, border enforcement, racism, and uneven access to care shape the health and daily lives of agricultural workers in the United States. Rather than treating suffering as an individual or purely medical issue, Holmes shows how it is produced by broader social arrangements, including NAFTA-era economic pressures, labor conditions in U.S. agriculture, and the ways institutions normalize inequality. The book is also notable for its method: Holmes uses embodied anthropology, combining participant observation with direct bodily experience to demonstrate how social hierarchies are lived through the body. As a result, the book functions both as an ethnography and as a critique of public health, immigration policy, and the social organization of farm labor.
