              <text>This image was collected during Henry P. Anderson’s doctoral research into the public health aspects of the Bracero Program, a bi-national agreement which allowed workers from Mexico to travel to the United States temporarily to work in the agricultural industry. In California, the California Department of Employment managed the program which primarily served corporate agriculture. This collection contains extensive documentation on the California program, and the millions of Mexican men, mainly from rural communities, who participated in it. In the collection, they are mostly unnamed but there are a few instances of interviews and photographs documenting names and voices.</text>
