in the pech valley, there are a lot more languages. there are languages that have no written form that only a few thousand people speak in the valley where u.s. troops found themselves operating. so interpreters were a lifeline, not nearly for literally translating the conversations between americans and afghans but for helping americans understand the nuances of what was going on around them, to read cues they were not equipped to read, to untangle the details of my local disputes that might seem inconsequential but often in fact were driving aspects of the insurgency. disputes over water, overland rights, things like that. i think the interpreters who served and in some cases fought alongside american troops, they saved american lives to the degree that there ever was success up there. i think the interpreters bear a lot of responsibility for that. i interviewed more than 300 american vets for this book as well as afghans and you would not often find an american who expressed anything other than really extreme gratitude for the inter

thursday 17th, 1966, strikers grape pickers from delano began a 300 mile march north ward from the valley of their labor to sacramento. the march was more than dramatized as a march for strike and more than a march to free workers and more than a demand for recognition of their union. it was a symbol of the long, long struggle of california farm workers for a more equitable share of the wealth they have helped to produce. the road that led to this easter pilgrimage goes back many years. it is a long road that crosses a big land. everything is big in california. the land is big and rich. the men and the corporations who own the land are big and rich. the people who work the land are poor. very poor. the how and the why of this is not a pretty story. it does not have a happy ending, at least not yet. agriculture is california's biggest industry. it is a $3 billion a year business. farming in california has always been big. many farms in california started big. some of the old spanish and mexican land grants comprising thousands of acres have never been broken up. more than 3/4 of all farmla

the inland valleys, whether it is in the heart of santa clara valley or the inland valleys of the east bay. and, for now anyway, the northbay valleys are doing okay. air quality is good but that likely won't hold. the take away for sunday is if you are making plans for later in the day, we will have moderate air quality conditions. very much bay area wide. that is the official forecast from the bay area air quality district who still has us all under an air quality advisory through today. it could be worse in this. we went through many days that were far worse than this last summer but today at moderate you want to keep in mind and we still have a long summer together we can see the air quality could only appear the other headline is how hot it is. for most of california. and for some of us in the bay area, just not most of us. take a look or the heat advisory is for today. he is most of the state. will become closer to home you can see the area that is influenced by the onshore flow is not included in this but it doesn't mean it will still be hot for inland locations but there is the

agri business has ruled the domain in the fertile valleys of california with absolute power, political. the southern pacific railroad once ran california and a famous novel written about that called "the octopus." and the s.p. is still one of the biggest land owners. it is part of agri-business and so is di giorgio, the curran county land company, miller and luxe, anderson and payton, and the california paper corporation, and the place has not gone unchallenged there. is place called the muscle slew, and seven men lost their lives may 11, 1880 in a dispute of the settlers, and the tree under which they died is tragedy oak. that tragedy is now history and perpetuated by a state marker. new struggles that replaced it many of them. and other names and dates follow. fresno, 1917, vacaville, 1932, corcoran, 1933, pixley, 1933, el centro, 1934, santa rosa, 1935, los angeles, 1935, salinas, 1936, stockton, 1937, bakersfield, 1938, bakersfield again in 1947, stockton, 1948, el centro, 1961. ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ ♪♪ >>> landlords and exorbitant rents force large numbers of migrant farm families to live o

so the valley today is not only a valley. it's a center and a safe haven and the capitol for all of those that fear their lives, that are fearing taliban terrorists and trying to get to somewhere to feel safe. so with that said, what is our strength? the biggest strength we have is our political will. which unfortunately isn't there in washington. the united states is capable of doing everything. but the decision which was taken to withdraw troops from afghanistan so abruptly was a political decision. it has hurt the feelings of so many american service members, intelligence community, strategic community. i understand washington was fatigued by paying billions of dollars and retaining the troops in afghanistan. what you're seeing now, america is paying with its reputation and discredibility. america must show will and power and project and confidence. and hope. >> sean: i'm going to bring into the conversation, two lawmakers now that are calling on the biden administration to recognize you, sir. that is the afghan opposition
