Im the manuscripts librarian here at the california historic society. Im really excited about tonights program. Its my great pleasure to introduce our speaker, dr. Carlos Manuel Salomon tonight. He is a scholar working in the areas of borderland studies, social movements, oral history, and migration. This portrait of pico challenges the paradigm of the decline of the californians through which that experience has often been interpreted drawing a connection by the battles fought by k californians. Like many other early mexican settlers, pio pico was of african descent. The second nonnative settler was also of african descent. They were just not aware of the early african roots of california. This is an aspect of our history thats worthy of much greater interest and exploration, and im so honored and pleased that dr. Salomon will explore it with us here tonight. Please do stay after the program to chat about a copy of his wonderful book. His wife owns one of the best restaurants in oakla
