Adriesue "Bitzy" Gomez was a pioneer of trucking that has been erased from history.
In the 1970’s the Coalition of Women Truck Drivers, was a 150 member group that organized to fight hiring discrimination, sexual misconduct in trucking companies and raise awareness of lack of bathroom facilities at truck stops for women. The work of these women paved the way to the modern day recruitment campaigns that encourage women to apply for truck driving jobs and "Good Fath" EEO hiring efforts.
Bitzy passed way in the Spring of 2015 after being hit by a car while walking across a busy street in Orange County California. Her Brother Paul Critchett joins us as our guest to remember his sister's tenacity , advocacy and the life struggles she encoutered trying to support her children while working as a long-haul truck driver.
