South Texas Hispanic Farm Labor Communities Oral History Project
The South Texas Hispanic Farm Labor Communities Oral History Project is a multi-disciplinary collaboration which incorporates oral history, archaeology, archival analysis, and public humanities to document and preserve the perspectives of individuals in South Texas who lived and worked as Hispanic farm laborers in the region from 1930-1990. A partnership between the Nueces County Historical Commission, Del Mar College, and Texas A&M University-Kingsville, the project brings together community members, faculty, and college students to record an under-represented aspect of regional history. The project began in 2012, and is directed by Dr. Mark Robbins (Associate Professor of History, Del Mar College, Corpus Christi, Texas) and Dr. Christine Reiser Robbins (Assistant Professor of Anthropology, Texas A&M University-Kingsville, Kingsville, Texas).
