Abstract	This article provides a portrait of the challenges and promise of Latino schooling in California's agricultural Central Valley, site of one of the largest and socioeconomically vulnerable Latino populations in the nation's most populous state. Through surveys, interviews, and participant observation, we document a multi-year "Placed-Based Education" project by which Latino and Filipino community college students learn of the region's legendary Farmworkers Movement through oral history methodology. We find that students attain great gains within historical thinking skills, biliteracy abilities, and positive bicultural identity. We discuss the implications of this approach at both the junior college and K-12 schooling levels. (As Provided).
