RESEARCH PEDAGOGY<\/strong><\/p>\n

Writing history is a political act. Every word or sentence put on paper is shaped by our experiences, interactions, and understanding of the world around us. As Mexicans, our history within the broader context of United States history has been interpreted in various ways. Some interpretations have portrayed Mexicans as outsiders, bandits, and savages. Conversely, Chicano and Mexican historians and scholars have challenged these views by emphasizing the crucial role Mexicans have played in the development of the United States.<\/p>\n

In this context, my research pedagogy within the field of Chicano\/Latino Studies and History focuses on creating a counter-narrative around labor, migration, and activism. This approach has led me to examine the history of working-class Mexicans in California and Ohio, particularly through oral histories of farmworkers, their families, union organizers, and community activists who have fought for a better quality of life.<\/p>\n
