Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the role played by young Chicano migrant farm workers in the creation of the Chicano Movement after 1950. It argues that the Chicano Movement grew out of a translocal migrant community operating between Wisconsin and Texas. After 1950, Chicanos in Crystal City, Texas, where they represented the majority population, pushed for an end to school segregation. This advocacy facilitated youth entry into the local Chicano migrant worker political movement, which elected five Chicanos, known as Los Cinco, to the city council in Crystal City. Though Los Cinco only held office between 1963--1965, young Chicanos carried an activist impulse north to Wisconsin. In Wisconsin, with the assistance of local progressives, these activists pushed for the reform of conditions for migrant farm workers. This effort led to the founding of Obreros Unidos, a labor union, among Texas-Mexican migrant farm workers, who in turn transformed the migrant labor system to serve themselves. Once only a labor recruiting network, the migrant system now facilitated community mobilization in both Texas and Wisconsin. After 1969, as the union deteriorated, activists spread out to take positions with migrant-serving agencies operating under the Office of Economic Opportunity in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where they called for and won Chicano control of "War on Poverty" agencies. After 1970, as political protest under the banner of La Raza Unida Party developed in Crystal City, Cristaleno activists, trained in Wisconsin, returned to their hometown as leaders. The Chicano Movement thus developed in Crystal City and Wisconsin, and took as its single greatest resource the translocal migrant farm worker network operating across the Midwestern migrant stream. And over an eventful decade, the activists gained a permanent political presence in both Texas border politics and Wisconsin welfare agencies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each spring during the 1960s and 1970s, a quarter million farm workers left Texas to travel across the nation, from the Midwest to California, to harvest America's agricultural products. During this migration of people, labor, and ideas, Tejanos established settlements in nearly all the places they traveled to for work, influencing concepts of Mexican Americanism in Texas, California, Wisconsin, Michigan, and elsewhere. In The Tejano Diaspora, Marc Simon Rodriguez examines how Chicano political and social movements developed at both ends of the migratory labor network that flowed between Crystal City, Texas, and Wisconsin during this period. Rodriguez argues that translocal Mexican American activism gained ground as young people, activists, and politicians united across the migrant stream. Crystal City, well known as a flash point of 1960s-era Mexican Americanism, was a classic migrant sending community, with over 80 percent of the population migrating each year in pursuit of farm work. Wisconsin, which had a long tradition of progressive labor politics, provided a testing ground for activism and ideas for young movement leaders. By providing a view of the Chicano movement beyond the Southwest, Rodriguez reveals an emergent ethnic identity, discovers an overlooked youth movement, and interrogates the meanings of American citizenship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can human beings be induced to sacrifice their lives—even one minute of their lives-for the sake of their group? This question, central to understanding the dynamics of social movements, is at the heart of this collection of original essays. The book is the first to conceptualize and illustrate the complex patterns of negotiation, struggle, borrowing, and crafting that characterize what the editors term "oppositional consciousness"—an empowering mental state that prepares members of an oppressed group to undermine, reform, or overthrow a dominant system. Each essay employs a recent historical case to demonstrate how oppositional consciousness actually worked in the experience of a subordinate group. Based on participant observation and interviews, chapters focus on the successful social movements of groups such as African Americans, people with disabilities, sexually harassed women, Chicano workers, and AIDS activists. Ultimately, Oppositional Consciousness sheds new light on the intricate mechanisms that drive the important social movements of our time. Contributors: Naomi Braine, Sharon Groch, Fredrick C.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beginning with the arrival of the first large wave of agricultural and industrial workers in the early 1920s, Wisconsin's Mexican community has played an integral role in the state's cultural, social, economic, and religious history. Although some came as migrant laborers who worked as seasonal workers and then returned to their homes and families in Mexico, a large number of Mexican immigrants settled across the state's cities and rural towns and in the process developed vibrant communities. Arriving after the settlement of most European-origin immigrants, Mexicans strove to carve out their own space in Wisconsin and its unique immigrant history. This manuscript will endeavor to tell both the story of those who came and those who stayed to make Wisconsin their home. Unlike many other immigrant groups, especially those from Europe, who witnessed a sharp decline in immigration beginning in the 1920s, Mexican immigration to Wisconsin has continued and grown to the present day. With communities across Wisconsin, ranging from Milwaukee to Wautoma to Green Bay to La Crosse, Mexicans have become integral members of the state's various communities, culture, and economies. Today, Mexicans rank as the third largest race or ethnicity category in Wisconsin, trailing only Non-Hispanic whites and Non-Hispanic Blacks. Despite having a sizable presence in Wisconsin since the 1920s, however, manuscript-length writing regarding the state's Mexican community has been limited. This manuscript will contribute to the growing field of historical research documenting this nearly century old community."--Provided by publisher.
