I’m in California for the month conducting research for my dissertation, Labor, Migration, and Activism: A History of Mexican Workers on the Oxnard Plain, 1930-1980<\/em>. And plus I’m visiting my family and friends! This week, I’m in the SF bay area visiting archives and presenting at a conference. I had the opportunity to see the Fred Ross Papers<\/a> and Ernesto Galarza Papers<\/a> at Stanford University and NAACP Papers<\/a> at the Bancroft Library at UCB. Plus, I made a stop at the SF Public Library to see the American Labor Citizen<\/em> newspaper, which had photos of the Ventura County Citrus Strike of 1941!<\/p>\n
