MOVOZ is a multimedia project dedicated to collecting the narratives of farm workers in California and to gathering the oral histories of agricultural migrants from rural Mexico so that their stories can be archived at the Library of Congress. We are pleased to welcome Maria Di Maruka Opett, an eco-feminist radio producer and MOVOZ’s founder, who will discuss the project and its plans to broadcast these narratives, which are unfamiliar to many, through radio, the Internet, and social media.
Sponsored by the UCLA César E. Chávez Department of Chicana/o Studies, the UCLA Center for Oral History Research, the UCLA Department of History, and the UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center
