Stories of truckers from Villa Madero, Michoacán

Interview with Javier Rosales and José María Ayala

Abstract

"This transcription is one of the materials obtained in the fieldwork done in 2020 for my undergraduate thesis: "'Seconds to die' and other stories of truck drivers from Villa Madero, Michoacán", to obtain a degree in Intercultural Literature. This work is an interdisciplinary theoretical-methodological proposal that takes tools from oral literature, verbal arts, history and anthropology. It was carried out with the objective of obtaining stories located in the memories of the people who work or worked as freight car drivers in the Madero municipality and the different contexts in which they move".
