Grape Vines and Orchard Lines
Left History features articles from a variety of theoretical approaches; these include feminist, marxist, and postmodernist deliberations on topics such as race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, culture, the state, labour, the environment, theory, and method
Labours of Love
This article provides a focused review of the history of seasonal and “foreign” farm labour migration in Canada, and in particular the Canadian Seasonal Agricultural Workers Program (SAWP). It underscores how Mexican migrant workers in particular have been portrayed in Canadian narrative discourses, drawn primarily from political and journalistic sources in Canada in the postwar period. Extended to Mexico in 1974, the SAWP has a longer history of…

It explores the historical precedents of seasonal farm labour in Canada through the lens of the interior or the personal on…
On the "margins" of empire? Toward a history of Hawaiian labour and settlement in the Pacific Northwest
This paper explores the historiography of Hawaiian mobility in the 19th century, with reference to mobilities that took place through Kā naka Maoli engagements as servants for the Hudson's Bay Company of London. In recharting Hawaiian mobilities to the Pacific Northwest, it considers how Kā naka Maoli histories were intertwined with trans-Pacific networks of commerce and a broader Pacific world of aspirational mobility, extractive marine-based in…
