Acknowledgments

For this project, I am primarily a collector, and the collection has benefited greatly from the work of librarians, archivists, historians, activists, and students.

This page was developed through a fellowship at the CUNY Graduate Center Digital Initiatives’ 2024 NEH Open Education Publishing Institute. I owe a great debt of gratitude to, among several others, Robin Miller, Laurie Hurson, and Matthew K. Gold at the OEPI for helping me bring it to life.

The page was further expanded with generous funding from the Albert Lepage Center for History in the Public Interest at Villanova University.

Many librarians and archivists were of great assistance in tracking down sources and obtaining permissions, including Jennifer Jimenez-Perez and Lisa Muilenburg at Del Mar College, Lori Podolsky and Amanda King at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi’s Mary and Jeff Bell Library, Mary J. Wallace at Wayne State University’s Walter P. Reuther Library, Shelby Gonzalez at Corpus Christi’s La Retama Central Library, and Carla O. Alvarez at the Nettie Lee Benson Latin American Collection at the University of Texas, as well as their colleagues.

I owe additional thanks to the Voces Oral History Center, Rebecca Flores, Lisa Barefield, Juan Espinosa, Catherine Gutierrez, Dr. Mark Robbins, Jonathan Cortez, Dr. Jim Klein, Dr. Isabel Araiza, Drew Cuthbertson, and Madison 365.

This is a public page for educational use, but I have gone to considerable lengths to get permissions for its content. Any concerns and take-down requests, however, can be sent through the contact form HERE.
