Part of the original Rainbow Coalition with the Black Panthers and Young Patriots, the politically radical Puerto Ricans who constituted the Young Lords instituted programs for political, social, and cultural change within the communities in which they operated. The Young Lords offers readers the opportunity to learn about this vibrant organization through their own words and images, collecting an array of their essays, journalism, photographs, speeches, and pamphlets. Organized topically and thematically, this volume highlights the Young Lords? diverse and inventive activism around issues such as education, health care, gentrification, police injustice and gender equality, as well as self-determination for Puerto Rico. In recovering these rare written and visual materials, Darrel Enck-Wanzer has given voice to the lost chorus of the Young Lords, while providing an indispensable resource for students, scholars, activists, and others interested in learning about this influential grassroots ?street political? organization. 606 $aPuerto Ricans$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xSocial conditions$y20th century$vSources 606 $aPuerto Ricans$zNew York (State)$zNew York$xPolitics and government$y20th century$vSources 606 $aPuerto Ricans$zNew York (State)$zNew York$vBiography 606 $aPolitical activists$zNew York (State)$zNew York$vBiography 606 $aReaders 607 $aNew York (N.Y.)$xSocial conditions$y20th century$vSources 607 $aNew York (N.Y.)$xEthnic relations$vSources 607 $aNew York (N.Y.)$vBiography 615 0$aPuerto Ricans$xSocial conditions 615 0$aPuerto Ricans$xPolitics and government 615 0$aPuerto Ricans 615 0$aPolitical activists 615 0$aReaders. 676 $a305.868/72950747 701 $aEnck-Wanzer$b Darrel$01626904 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809385303321 996 $aThe Young Lords$93963213 997 $aUNINA
