This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chicano! The History of the Mexican American Civil Rights Movement is the most comprehensive account of the arduous struggle by Mexican Americans to secure and protect their civil rights. It is also a companion volume to the critically acclaimed, four-part documentary series of the same title, which is now available on video from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Both this published volume and the video series are a testament to the Mexican American communityÍs hard-fought battle for social and legal equality as well as political and cultural identity. Since the United States-Mexico War, 1846-1848, Mexican Americans have striven to achieve full rights as citizens. From peaceful resistance and violent demonstrations, when their rights were ignored or abused, to the establishment of support organizations to carry on the struggle and the formation of labor unions to provide a united voice, the movement grew in strength and in numbers. However, it was during the 1960s and 1970s that the campaign exploded into a nationwide groundswell of Mexican Americans laying claim, once and for all, to their civil rights and asserting their cultural heritage. They took a name that had been used disparagingly against them for yearsChicanoand fashioned it into a battle cry, a term of pride, affirmation and struggle. Aimed at a broad general audience as well as college and high school students, Chicano! focuses on four themes: land, labor, educational reform and government. With solid research, accessible language and historical photographs, this volume highlights individuals, issues and pivotal developments that culminated in and comprised a landmark period for the second largest ethnic minority in the United States. Chicano! is a compelling monument to the individuals and events that transformed society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuando Chicanos: Our Background and Our Pride de Nephtalí de León fue publicado por primera vez en 1972 fue prohibido por el Sistema Público de Bibliotecas de Dallas (Texas) y su autor fue «escoltado fuera» de la escuela a la que asistía (Lubbock High) por policías armados. En aquella época, la palabra «terrorista» no se utilizaba, pero fue acusado de «revolucionario». Esta obra apareció como acción y reacción contra las agencias de seguridad particularmente institucionalizadas de supremacía blanca. Este libro constituyó, y todavía constituye, una contribución pionera a un nuevo nacimiento trascendental: una nueva estética de un pueblo resucitado. En los Estados Unidos existe una guerra declarada contra los diez millones de chicanos y este libro es un testimonio del espíritu imperecedero de supervivencia en una lucha continua.

Download or read book Pain and Promise written by Edward Simmen and published by Signet Book. This book was released on 1972 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has seen the dramatic emergence of the Chicano, or Mexican-American, from passive endurance of century-old indifference and injustice at the hands of Anglo society. Such figures as César Chávez in California, Reies Lopez Tijerina in New Mexico, and José Angel Gutíerrez in Texas are but the most visible signs of this far-reaching renaissance of ethnic pride and power. The thirty-two essays in this volume consider the Chicano movement from many different points of view. Written by both Chicanos and Anglos, they trace the history of Chicanos in this country, detail the forms of oppression they have faced, describe the new movements that have begun to promote active change, and carefully consider the different paths of protest, resistance, and action among which Chicanos now must choose. The result is a much-needed book that places in clear focus one of the most important political and social movements of our country today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mexican-American Mind is a book intended to give the reader a glimpse into the mental machinations of members of the Mexican-American cultural group, which has grown into one of the largest minority groups in the nation. In this collection of essays, the reader becomes privy to understanding how Mexican-Americans feel about, as well as interpret, almost all areas of culture including men's roles, women's roles, relationships, marriage, religion, travel, and education. Caravantes gives expression to many cultural tendencies, which many have noticed, but few are willing to admit to in such a candid manner. Ultimately, this book, with its sociological inclinations, has an ultimate goal of acute cultural awareness among members of this population, as well as greater cultural awareness among those who service them.

Download or read book Chicanismo written by Ignacio M. García and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 1997-09-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1960s and '70s, Mexican Americans began to agitate for social and political change. From their diverse activities and agendas there emerged a new political consciousness. Emphasizing race and class within the context of an oppressive society, this militant ethos would become the unifying theme for groups involved in a myriad of causes. Chicanismo, as it came to be known, marked a transformation in the way Mexican Americans thought about themselves, enabling them for the first time to see themselves as a community with a past and a present. In Chicanismo, the first intellectual history of the Chicano Movement and the militant ethos that emerged from it, Ignacio Garcia traces the development of the philosophical strains that guided the movement. First, Mexican Americans came to believe that the liberal agenda that had promised education and equality had failed them, leading them toward separatism. Second, they saw a need to reinterpret the past as it related to their own history, leading them to discovered their legacy of struggle. Third, Mexican American activists, intellectuals, and artists affirmed a renewed pride in their ethnicity and class status. Finally, this new philosophy-Chicanismo-was politicized through the struggles of the Chicano organizations that promoted it as they faced resistance or external attacks. Although the idea of Chicanismo would eventually unravel, its ideological strains remain important even today. Combining research and personal knowledge of people, events, organizations, and political/cultural rhetoric, along with a synthesis of scholarship from a variety of fields, Chicanismo provides a unique, multidimensional view of the Chicano Movement.
