These talented students from Moriarty High School will share the story behind their National History Day award-winning exhibit, which explores the intersection of public health, labor, and immigration in 20th-century New Mexico. Learn how they used interpretive panels and a unique glass bottle timeline to tell the often-overlooked story of gas baths used to delouse braceros and other Mexican migrant workers.
Hear firsthand from Elena Dominguez about her personal connection to the Bracero Program and how it shaped her research. Get your questions answered LIVE!
