García provides a rare look inside the struggles of the 1960's and 1970's as they unfolded in Los Angeles. Based on in-depth interviews conducted with three key activists, this book illuminates the lives of Raul Ruiz, Gloria Arellanes, and Rosalio Muñoz-their family histories and widely divergent backgrounds; the events surrounding their growing consciousness as Chicanos; the sexism encountered by Arellanes; and the aftermath of their political histories. In his substantial introduction, García situates the Chicano movement in Los Angeles and contextualizes activism within the largest civil rights and empowerment struggle by Mexican Americans in US history-a struggle that featured César Chávez and the farm workers, the student movement highlighted by the 1968 LA school blowouts, the Chicano antiwar movement, the organization of La Raza Unida Party, the Chicana feminist movement, the organizing of undocumented workers, and the Chicano Renaissance.  Weaving this revolution against a backdrop of historic Mexican American activism from the 1930's to the 1960's and the contemporary black power and black civil rights movements, García gives readers the best representations of the Chicano generation in Los Angeles. 606 $aChicano movement$zCalifornia$zLos Angeles 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChicano movement 676 $a305.868/72079494 700 $aGarci?a$b Mario T.$0906108 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464203803321 996 $aThe Chicano generation$92491222 997 $aUNINA
