In this week’s reading, “Chicano History: An Oral History Approach” by Mario T. Garcia, he interviews a couple of people to understand their history. He argues that it is important to have first hand documentation of the Mexican experience in the United States. Mario states, “…innovative historians have begun to employ oral history techniques to compensate for non-existing working class documentation” (Garcia). This being so, Mario explains that they are techniques in order to perform a perfect interview. In the article, Ms. Donna Salazar has four interviews. Ms. Donna Salazar interviews two families, which were the Mendozas and the Sandovals. Ms. Donna Salazar interviews them about the Mexican life in the United States. Garcia states, ” It is important to analyze the interviews for both technique and content” (Garcia). Garcia explains that Ms. Donna Salazar fails to pay sufficient attention to chronology because it is sometimes difficult to understand interviewees historical periods.
