Description
"World War II created a huge demand for American farm products. But the war also caused vast numbers of farm workers to abandon the fields, either to join the military or seek work in the cities. The solution would be a unique contract-worker agreement between the United States and Mexico -- the Bracero Program."--Container.

Description
The Pendleton Round-Up is not the oldest rodeo in the country and not even close to the biggest. But according to the cowboys and cowgirls who compete there, it's one of the best - and far more than just a rodeo. This is the story of how, for the past 100 years, the people of small-town Pendleton and the Umatilla Indian Reservation have combined history, tradition and thrill-a-minute entertainment to help their community thrive.

Description
"In the early 1980's, disciplines of an Indian spiritual master, Bhawan Shree Rajneesh, behan arriving in a remote part of central Oregon. They came to build a utopian community in the desert, but soon clashed with other local residents. The conflicts escalated and things would ultimately go terribly wrong. This is the story of two cultures colliding and the leadership of a commune that took the quest for power too far."--Container.
