Description

Two pages from a series of several different concepts for retrospective show on migrant farmworkers. Created by a professor of anthropology at SUNY Geneseo, the exhibit showed the experiences of four different cultural groups--Mexican, Algonquin Native, Haitian, and African American--each of which has a kiosk in the show.

The drawing also are of interest to demonstrate the extent to which telling migrant stories required the acquisition of new skills outside of professional fields. There simply wasn't the funding for large departments associated with larger galleries, so Genesee Migrant Center staff and allies did it themselves.
