The Dam was a joint project of Mexico and the U.S. to harness the waters of the Rio Grande in the early 1950s. This work brings to light the struggles of the people in Zapata County and their fight for justice as their ancestral lands and homes were seized by the United States government with little compensation. They were forced to move and start new lives away from the river which had been the source of their livelihood for generations. This work also looks at the next generation “the children of Falcon Dam” as they continue to be impacted by the events surrounding the building of Falcon Dam- now 70 years later.Item Increasing Your Research Impact(2023-11) Alderete-Cruz, Gab; Zhou, XuanAre you a graduate student eager to make a significant impact with your research?
