Almost every textbook on twentieth century American history has a few sentences on Cesar Chavez and the California Farmworker Movement. Very few textbooks include expansive treatments of farmworkers and residents of rural California as central to American culture. Professor Oliver Rosales, Bakersfield College, has been part of working groups and design teams commissioned to find ways to include these broader histories in the exhibit spaces for the Cesar Chavez National Monument.

Oliver Rosales’ award-winning book, Civil Rights in Bakersfield: Multiracial Activism and Segregation, examines the many ways Black, Asian and Latino communities linked to Bakersfield organized to challenge segregation in rural California after World War II. By understanding rural conditions, Civil Rights in Bakersfield makes a substantial contribution to our understanding of the living constitution in the United States. Professor Oliver Rosales will share insights generated by working with farm labor and civil rights communities across the Central Valley.
