Latinas/os at the Threshold of the Information Age: Telecommunications Challenges and Opportunities

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

The Dávilas had a telephone. So, when we got a phone call, they would send their kids to the fence, and the kids would call and tell us we had a phone call. And, my mother and father had to go all the way to the front of the house, to the front of the yard, and we had to go around the fence. But I was little, so I could - I still remember, they'd get a phone call and they'd all start running to get the phone, and I would just go under the fence.
