We write to express our appreciation for the Pinal Nugget, especially for the historical perspective offered by John Hernandez on the 1959 copper strike. For many Tri Community residents the centrality of labor struggles to what the region has become is easily passed over as times and demographics change.
Mr. Hernandez work helps us understand who we are, where we came from as a community and the spirit that may help inform our future.
