    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Brothers Andrew and Bob Garcia 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. Andrew and Bob lived in the La Yarda neighborhood, and then in East Lawrence, with their parents and siblings. They describe the living conditions in La Yarda, as well as childhood pasttimes, social activities, and community conflicts. They discuss their experiences attending school and receiving healthcare. They share their thoughts about immigration. Andrew and Bob also discuss the impact of the 1951 flood on the La Yarda neighborhood. ]]></dcterms:description>
