He just wanted t bring attentin t the terrible wrking cnditins(条件) f farm wrkers in the United States.
Fasting is als a practice in many religins(宗教).Every year during the mnth f Ramadan, which is are religius hliday, Muslims fast frm sunrise t sunset. Many Indians fast at special time, and there was als a fasting hliday in ancient China.
