Ramon Resa and RAMON RISING Are Getting Noticed.

April 8, 2019 by Diane Wagner

News coverage, awareness, donations. Inspired by Ramon’s journey, people are donating to get the documentary about his life made!

Central Valley pediatrician, and subject of the upcoming documentary entitled RAMON RISING, Ramon Resa, MD had the honor of giving the keynote address at the 2019 Cesar Chavez Legacy Awards Gala because his story epitomizes the legacy of Cesar Chavez. Ramon’s journey from abandoned migrant farmworker boy to pediatrician embodies the reality that ordinary people can do truly extraordinary things. Multiple news outlets including ABC were on hand to cover Dr. Resa’s speech and to interview him about his incredible life story.

The story was later picked up by other ABC affiliates such as …

… ABC News Bakersfield: “Doctor who worked at Central Valley farm picking cotton at age 3 shares story of resilience”

… and ABC Fresno: “Farmworker to physician: story of resilience”

The nation’s largest Spanish language newspaper, La Opinión, also covered Dr. Resa’s story …

(In English: “From peasant to pediatrician: a history of resistance and perseverance”)

Hoy Los Angeles reported about Ramon’s journey in its article, “Abandonado y adoptado por campesinos se convierte en pediatra y motivador” (in English: “Abandoned and adopted by farmers, he becomes a pediatrician and motivator”).

And his story was also picked up by TheWeek.com in their article, “Once a farmworker, California doctor returns to the fields to treat migrant kids.”

Texas removing the mask requirement is unconscionable. My father died last month from covid because of a single exposure to a relative (who was symptomatic). This pandemic is still very much in force and wearing a mask is the first level of protection.
