African immigrants exploited in Spain – cheap labor for cheap vegetables | DW Documentary
African immigrants in Spain face extreme working conditions. They tend to and harvest vegetables for European supermarkets, but they live a life of poverty.
They often have to work in the plastic greenhouses in which the vegetables grow. At night, they sleep next to the farms in plastic tents. Electricity and running water are a luxury few…

Spain takes these people in, Provides them with some Semblance of work (Enough that they can send home to ensure their family lives a good life) – And they STILL Complain? Let none of them in. Even more so – I am currently renting a Very nice room in southern Spain for only 180 Euro a month. He isn't a victim.
it's some day labors in America that don't pay $40 a day
Their nobody to their Government
It's not labor
When things start to work out for the best… Spain could be filled with many mixed race kids in those migrant parts
Going to Spain to find wealth is like going to Iceland for the sun.
It's sad to hear that the money he is making is not sufficient to provide for his family. It is a big decision to move to a different country and work that many hours to support your family. He must miss his family a lot. I hope the best for him and his family.
He is sending money home to his wife and 3 kids. Hard to advance that way
leftist garbage.story…..andalusia worker union my ass..leftist dreamer
chep …what you thing they can earn 200 eu per day…dont shit..offcours cheap labour must exist like everywhere…this tv reporter is example who fight for them..bloody communist ans socialist
You don't just start at the botton if you only come for cheap labour. There is no social mobility. There is no point in movingvto the white mans countries.
For the German market.
Frankly, 30 euros a day should easily get you a small apartment rented in a rural area, especially if you are willing to share with 1-2 people. I understand that the work might be seasonal but the expectations of these migrants are way too high.
When I arrived in a new country I took any work opportunity I had, worked my way up and didn't give attitude about negative conditions.
Hard workers will get by and nobody should expect handouts in a country where they did not contribute with taxes before.
Labeling this as modern day slavery is just a way for media to get more attention. Most of these people chose to come to Europe.
Entitled 100%
Africans must be grateful instead of complaoning , i respect their efforts by traveling for better life but they have to stop bitching , were they expecting castle housing?
Then go back to africa if you don‘t like it here smh
You’d think they would save up, move to Africa open a business then be upper middle class or wealthy
Look I live in Los Angeles and I can tell u that illegal immigrants here will love to earn 40 euros a day.. they have it way harder out here.
the had south had already risen i see… very intresting
Go to the airport and get a free ticket home to your own country.
Spain is stupid they suuposed to not be so badly treated
Start at the bottom and work hard, educate yourself and get a better job. 15000 euros a year, tax free and living in a wonderful country like Spain is a small price to pay for illegal immigrants.
It is much better than africa , stop vlaimingbwages that you can never earn in your own country
They get what pensioners get a month in Sweden, nasty of them to complain.
The unfortunate truth is that most of those arriving from Africa and elsewhere have no idea of life in Europe-no language skills,little else but their labour to offer so cannot expect better conditions than the local unemployed, causing a race to the lowest wages ever!
Unaccompanied children entering Europe as refugees are often abducted/sexually exploited/abused/sold for organs!
50% of refugee children go missing within 48 hours in Greece!
Authorities should investigate the role and motives of numerous obscure NGOs.
