    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Clara (Ramirez) Bucia and her brother Thomas Ramirez were interviewed by Helen Krische in 2006 as part of an oral history project to document the La Yarda and Mexican-American communities in Lawrence, Kansas. La Yarda was a neighborhood of worker housing provided by the Santa Fe Railroad for Mexican-American railroad workers; located near the Kansas (Kaw) River, the neighborhood was largely destroyed by a major flood in 1951. Clara and Thomas lived with their parents and eleven siblings in the La Yarda neighborhood. They describe their family&#039;s migration from Mexico to Lawrence, and the living conditions and social activities in La Yarda. They discuss family foodways and healthcare, as well as their work experiences growing up. Clara and Thomas discuss their experiences attending Lawrence schools and as part of the congregation of St. John&#039;s Church, as well as their experiences of discrimination and segregation in Lawrence. Both Clara and Thomas served in the military, and share their thoughts about how their service shaped their understanding of their experiences with discrimination in Lawrence. ]]></dcterms:description>
