Press release
Exhibit of the Youth Mural “Grandpa Was Bracero” During

Zacatecas” on Cutler CA The Club Colonia Apozol and the Braceros Association
will exhibit the youth mural by Families of the aging former braceros, many of
whom now live in the San Joaquin Valley.
The Asociacion de Braceros celebrates the economic and
cultural contributions made by the millions of Mexican who were brought to the
USA under the Bracero Program (1942-1964) to work in this country’s fields,
orchards, and railroad. The first group of migrant workers (1,500) arrived to
Stockton on September 29, 1942 and immediately began working in the farming
fields of the San Joaquin County. The braceros alleviated a critical labor shortage
brought by the advent of World War II; they made a great contribution to
California and the entire country’s wealth and prosperity.
The mural is to acknowledge, honor and thank them for
such contribution!
