Title: Andrea Echeverria Interview, May 19, 2020
Date: May 19, 2020
Creator: Andrea Echeverria; Tatiana Belenkaya
Description: Andrea Echeverria discusses the impact of COVID on her life. She shares that she has started teaching online, and that her four-year-old son has stopped going to school. This means that she can spend more time with him, and is surviving thanks to increased interactions with family and friends in Chile and Columbia. She has also been playing games online for the first time, and meditating everyday. Thinking about new stories and research projects, and looking for a new home, has also kept her going. Andrea reflects on how this crisis has led her to realize how fragile economic and social structures are, and how everything is so connected right now. This video is part of the Humanities Truck's From Me To You: A Covid-19 Oral History Project. https://humanitiestruck.com/frommetoyou/

Title: First Peace Corps Volunteer Families: Diary of the Zieglers in Colombia, South America, 1970-1972
Date: 1970/1972
Creator: Ziegler, Claire; Ziegler, Delwyn
Description: This diary details the daily volunteer experiences of the Ziegler family from 1970-1972 in Colombia, South America. Delwyn was age 38, Claire was age 30, Colette 4 1/2, and Andre 2 1/2. Delwyn, a former hospital controller, worked in business administration programs, including small business consulting and hospital administration. Claire, a fluent French speaker, taught French at a high school as well as at the Alliance Française. The Zieglers participated in the Peace Corps' experiment with families. Previously the Peace Corps had accepted only singles and couples. In an attempt to recruit more senior people with experience, the Peace Corps tried to see how families might work out as volunteers. The Zieglers were part of a group of five families recruited for Colombia.
