Gracias

I gratefully acknowledge the Office of Research and Economic Development for supporting this research through an Arts and Humanities Initiative (AHI) Standard Grant. Special thanks to all the coffee haciendas and to the many families and individuals who kindly donated their time for the interviews and share their stories to the world. I would also like to thank my family for their unconditional support during this process.

I am particularly thankful to the wonderful team that made this website possible at the Digital Scholarship & Publishing Studio at the University of Iowa Libraries, and I am also thankful for my research assistant Mayela Zambrano.

I am grateful for the generosity of Edwin Soto and Josué Rodríguez for providing the images that beautify this website.
