Mily Treviño-Sauceda is an American writer, trade unionist and executive director of ‘Alianza Nacional De Campesinas’, the National Alliance of Farmworker Women, a nonprofit organization advocating for the safety and rights of women laborers in agriculture. She is celebrated as a founder of the women’s farmworker movement in the United States. Woody Guthrie’s ‘Deportee (Plane Wreck at Los Gatos)’ is a protest song detailing the January 28, 1948 crash of a plane near Los Gatos Canyon, 20 miles (32 km) west of Coalinga in Fresno County, California, United States. The song honors the Mexican victims, mostly farmworkers, who had been deported, and expresses outrage about a news reel on the radio maligning them as being ‘just deportees’. ••• https://www.alianzanacionaldecampesinas.org/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mily_Trevi%C3%B1o-Sauceda https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deportee_(Plane_Wreck_at_Los_Gatos) ••• Interview conducted in English, Spanish, and Spanglish by Marco Rixecker https://www.amazon.com/author/marcorixecker ••• Radio Aula Mundi, October 2025 ••• At the moment, Radio Aula Mundi is an evolving podcast station where no language and all languages are spoken… It’s a multilingual mix of music, poetry, lectures, languages, interviews, documentaries, recipes, and a lot more, co-produced with the students of the ‘Aula Mundi International Cultural Center’…••• Radio Aula MundiCentro Cultural & Turistico Aula MundiAula Mundi Cultural Travel Centerhttps://linktr.ee/radioaulamundi •••
