    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Fidel Jimenez, Sr., was 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. Fidel grew up in Williamstown (in Jefferson County, Kansas) and Lawrence. Fidel describes his family&#039;s migration from Mexico to Lawrence. His father was a railroad worker; Fidel also worked on the railroad, and describes the impact of the 1951 flood on the railroad. Fidel shares memories of his family&#039;s foodways, and his childhood experiences with healthcare. He also discusses his thoughts about immigration, and his experiences of discrimination in Lawrence. ]]></dcterms:description>
