Seriously, we should have mandatory national service consisting of farm and construction labor. Make rich white kids spend a year under the Central Valley sun learning how to pick radishes from an expert who barely speaks English. Send kids into the Great Plains to detassel corn between HS and college. Put teams of young folks into Habitat For Humanity and similar projects.
It would reduce the disdain so many adults have for migrant & marginalized workers.
