Synopsis "Growing up in la Colonia: Boomer Memories From Oxnard’S Barrio"
La Colonia is half a square mile of land separated from the rest of Oxnard by the railroad tracks and home to the people who keep an agricultural empire running. In decades past, milpas of corn and squash grew in tiny front yards, kids played in the alleys and neighbors ran tortillerias out of their homes. Back then, it was the place to get the best raspadas on Earth. It was a home to Cesar Chavez and a campaign stop for presidential candidate Robert Kennedy. As one Colonia native put it, We may not have had what the other kids had, but we were just as rich. Through the voices of the people, the authors share the challenges and triumphs of growing up in this treasured place.
