Today in Monterey County History: Is "The Grapes of Wrath" still relevant?
Definitely still relevant and more so today because we know better and we could do better as a culture and a community. I ashamed of the inhumanity I witness every day in my own community - it's too close to home for comfort.

Climate migrants number 3 million in the United States with millions more around the world, making Steinbeck’s novel a prescient cautionary tale.
