The strikers of Coachella a rank-and-file history of the UFW movement / Christian O. Paiz   Author:  Paiz, Christian O. author Title:  The strikers of Coachella a rank-and-file history of the UFW movement / Christian O. Paiz Publisher:  Chapel Hill The University of North Carolina Press [2023] Description:  1 online resource (ix, 399 pages) illustrations, maps Electronic Resource:  https://smithsonian.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/smithsonian/detail.action?docID=30285124 Series:  Justice, power, and politics Notes:  Print version record and online resource (JSTOR, viewed February 22, 2023) Summary:  "The past decades have borne witness to the United Farm Workers' (UFW) tenacious hold on the country's imagination. Since 2008, the UFW has lent its rallying cry to a presidential campaign and been the subject of no less than nine books, two documentaries, and one motion picture. Yet the full story of the women, men, and children who powered this social movement has not yet been told. Based on more than 250 hours of original oral history interviews conducted with Coachella Valley residents who participated in the UFW and Chicano Movement, Filipino farm workers, bracero workers, and UFW volunteers throughout the United States, this stirring history spans from the 1960s and 1970s through the union's decline in the early 1980s"-- Bibliography Note:  Includes bibliographical references and index Contents:  The Rancher Nation and Its Discontents.
