from Read And Write With Natasha · host Natasha Tynes
Listen to the shocking, heart-wrenching story of Antonio Salazar-Hobson, who was the eleventh of fourteen migrant farmworker children born in Phoenix, Arizona. At age four, he was kidnapped by a childless, middle-aged white couple and was trafficked until the age of ten. As a teenager, Antonio met Cesar Chavez and was taken under his wing, a miracle which helped define his life. Antonio worked with Cesar over the next two decades. Antonio got a master's from Stanford in Latin American Studies as a Danforth Fellow, then went on to graduate law school from UC Davis Law School and became a labor lawyer, working with the United Farmworkers and large international unions for the past thirty years. He is the author of the memoir Antonio, We Know You.********************************************Connect with me:🐦 Twitter https://twitter.com/NatashaTynesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/natashatynes...📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/natasha.tynes/💌 My newsletter: https://thestorytellerquest.com/🌐 Website: https://www.natashatynes.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show🥒 NEW!
