Hide Profile

The Latino/Latina Voices Project began as a way to better understand and acknowledge the largest minority group in Cache Valley, Utah. The Latino/Latina population in Utah is made up of many communities, including individuals born and raised in Utah as well as people who have immigrated to Utah from all parts of Mexico, Central and South America, and other U.S. states, especially California, Arizona, and Texas. Forty-five oral history interviews with Utah Latinos and Latinas were recorded between April and October 2007.

The Latino/Latina Voices Project is part of Northern Utah Speaks, a collection of oral histories captured and preserved in USU's Special Collections and Archives that works to tell the story of all Northern Utah's citizens. The Latino/a Voices Project (LVP) began as a way to better understand and acknowledge the local, state and national story for the largest minority group in Cache Valley. The Latino/a population in Utah is made up of many communities including those born and raised in Utah to people who have immigrated to Utah from all parts of Mexico, Central and South America, and those who moved here from other U.S. states, especially California, Arizona and Texas.

Through funding from Utah Humanities Council/Utah Division of State History, Utah State Historical Records Advisory Board and the Marriner S. Eccles Foundation, a workshop was conducted to train bilingual community members to identify, collect and record the oral history of Cache Valley's Latino/a community members. Oral history fieldworkers each conducted four oral histories in the local Latino/a community. The interviews covered topics such as family traditions, religion, jobs and interests, as well as challenges associated with relocation, cultural identity and cultural differences. The oral historians recorded the oral histories on cassette tapes, which were then transferred from tape format to Wave files for digital storage.
