Miriam Flores remembers watching her supervisors getting angry at workers because they were singing in the fields. “The supervisor said he wouldn’t pay them because they were singing,” she said. “I felt the boss had no right to silence them. They weren’t doing anything wrong. What’s wrong with being happy at work? It’s a field – there is plenty of room to sing without interfering with anyone else’s job.”
