On Wednesday, May 6, 2009 LA Valley College hosted an event co-sponsored by the DHLI for Labor History Month. The event was spearheaded by LA Valley College Student Lupe Burgara, who organized an event for Labor History Month last year where Dolores Huerta and several Los Angeles unions came to the college. This year’s event commemorating Labor History Month was focused on the Mexican Repatriation of the 1930s.

Emilia Castaneda and her daughter Dr. Christine Valenciana came to LA Valley College to talk about the Mexican Repatriation of the 1930s. Emilia Castaneda was born in the United States, but her parents were not. Her parents came to the United States to live and work, and her mother later passed away. She and her brother only had their father, who was forced under Mexican Repatriation to go to Mexico after he lost his job and lost his house. Because Emilia and her brother had no other family, they had no option but to go with their father to Mexico although they were U.S. citizens and had never been to Mexico before. If they wanted to stay in the U.S.
