8 ноя 1942 г. - 13. BRACERO PROGRAM

Описание:

During World War II, however, the United States desperately needed agricultural workers to support the war effort. In response, the federal government introduced the bracero program in 1942 to bring Mexicans to work in the agricultural sectors of the United States. Many Latinos of Mexican descent in California date their arrival from this wave of immigration. The war also witnessed a huge surge in Latino participation in all sectors of the armed forces, a trend that continued during the Korean War and the Vietnam War.
