History
Today’s show celebrates Women’s History Month and comes to us from Re:Work, the podcast from the UCLA Labor Center that for the last decade has elevated stories of work to humanize and break down economic and racial justice issues. It's produced by Veena Hampapur and Saba Waheed.
Their latest episode is “The Tractor Princess” and it draws on excerpts from an oral history interview with Antoinette Yvonne DeOcampo-Lechtenberg, which is a part of a community archive and research initiative called Watsonville is in the Heart, which highlights the stories of Filipino families from the greater Pajaro Valley region in California.
On this week’s Labor History in Two: This was the day President Franklin Roosevelt named Frances Perkins Secretary of Labor.
