Grounds for Dreaming examines the complex social and political history of California’s Salinas Valley, tracing the evolution of its agricultural labor force from the mid-twentieth century to the present. Through archival research and oral histories, Lori A. Flores documents the experiences of Mexican and Filipino farmworkers, illustrating how their collective activism and cultural contributions shaped the region’s identity amidst the demands of a massive industrial food system.
