    In this interview, Francisca Valerio shares her story about working in manual labor under the Miami sun for 30+ years and her experience with We Count! for the Que Calor! campaign. Being the first of nine children and a woman, then starting her family at twenty-one, she describes the pressure of having to help her mother, younger siblings, and own children from a young age. Having worked on her parent\u27s farm in Mexico since she was a young girl, shortly after arriving in the States, she “accepted” to do the same here. She shares her experience working at a nursery and the conditions which she has had to work under. She tears up as she remembers the time when she felt that death was near as a result of being exposed to extreme heat with no breaks or water. She explains how working under the sun with no shade, water, or bathroom breaks has affected not only her health and personal life, but her husband’s as well. Francisca gives an optimistic view on the fear commonly shared by nursery workers; which she once had herself, but has now overcome with the help of We Count. She shares how We Count has impacted her knowledge about her labor rights and aided in finding her voice.https://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/we-count-student-oral-histories/1007/thumbnail.jp

    Eduardo Vela was born in 1930. Francisca Recio Vela was born in 1899. Mrs. Francisca Recio Vela (born ~1899) recalls her childhood in early 20th-century South Texas: her father Fortunato Recio, a Mexican-born teacher, postmaster, justice of the peace, and 1890s Hidalgo County commissioner; seeing ox carts and stagecoaches give way to the first train (~1904), automobiles (~1908), and telegraph; learning English in Edinburg after attending school in tiny Havana; and marrying into the Vela family in 1921, who operated the profitable hand-pulled cable ferry across the Rio Grande until the international bridge in Hidalgo, Texas replaced it. Her son, Eduardo G. “Ed” Vela, then detailed the City of Hidalgo’s modern transformation: the 1959 incorporation to protect the bridge from McAllen annexation, early toll-sharing revenue that funded the first police car and fire truck, and his two terms as mayor (1972–1978 and 1982–1986). At the end of the interview, Francisca briefly discusses her maternal grandfather who accidentally enlisted in the Union Army during the Civil War.https://scholarworks.utrgv.edu/rgvoralhistories/1445/thumbnail.jp

    Apresentamos a prosa realizada no dia 29 de julho de 2016, debaixo de uma farta sombra, com o chão coberto de folhas e coco do babaçu. Perto da rede que balançava na leveza da brisa, uma machadinha, um toco – instrumentos de trabalho da quebradeira Dona Francisca e seu marido Expedito. A tranquilidade da vida contrasta com a história daqueles que nos recebem, tanto no passado quando no presente: Serra Pelada, GETAT, INCRA, Matopiba. Terra de conflitos, de Guerrilha do Araguaia, de Sindicatos de Trabalhadores e Trabalhadoras Rurais, de mulheres quebradeiras de coco do babaçu. As contradições entre os projetos de colonização e projetos e polos agrícolas apresentados pelo Estado brasileiro frente a forma de vida desta quebradeira – um dos diversos adjetivos possíveis para Francisca – nos ensina “que viver é muito perigoso”, como diria Guimarães Rosa, porém fundamental e inexoravelmente necessário para que a própria vida caminhe e se reproduza. A entrevista aconteceu na roça de Dona Francisca, em Buriti do Tocantins, município do Bico do Papagaio que faz divisa com o Pará e está localizado a cerca de 10 quilômetros do Maranhão; realizada por Mariana Leal Conceição Nóbrega e Débora Assumpção e Lima

    Iron francisca, length 14cm. Slim and curved, with round shaft-hole and slightly expanding blade. In excellent condition and has been electrolytically cleaned.cf. Archaeologia XXXIV (1852) , p. 179, fig. 5. An example v. similar to this one from Londiniéres given to C.R.S. by Cochet, and then to Roach Smith Coll. So far as I can see they are not the same size, however, and one must check what happened to the Roach Smith one.Also in the Roach Smith Coll., a francisca from Pangbourne Berks., Coll. Antq. II (1852), 224, which is described as similar to the Londiniéres one
