This is a very good documentary that should be taught in schools. We see these kind of examples, still, in March For Our Lives, in Women's March, in BLM. Thank goodness for cameras & video so police won't repeat the violence of the past. Vote for Kamal that DOESN'T have a history of violence.
Police are still violent. They’re just doing it on camera and being caught on camera now because they are still not being held accountable even with clear video evidence.
Wow thank you so much to my raza 🤍 que viva la raza y los chicanos! Wish I would have learned this in school. I’m from a small town of white Americans and I’ve always been the different on this is a beautiful documentary, Brown and proud🤍🙏🏼
Thank you very much for showing this video 🙏I learned a lot about about my people that I didn’t know.I came to this country from Mexico 🇲🇽 in 1966.Nobody had ever talked to me about this before.
La plaza de cultura y artes is a great place to see this movement in person, there’s a lot of local art displayed too. I highly recommend, it’s kid friendly and free too.
@@jayAZ9670 How ? How about the government steal your million dollar Bay Area home and sell it to a new settler because of your Race … then deport you to Mexico when you’re been an American longer the existence of this country
@@jayAZ9670Maybe the comment is about the recent rhetoric and how it leads to actions that will effect future generations, could be past or present. Take your pick.
@@rich5034 excellent point. You know this rhetoric is nothing new. It has been a political pivot since the 1930’s when in the southwest immigrant labor was exploited for mining and agriculture
Why did this not mention Oscar Zeta Acosta - he played a major roll as the attorney for the ela13 - in getting all the charges dropped Also he documented to Hunter Thompson the article "Strange rumbling in Aztlan'
My name is Eduardo Delci(DelCid) from Arizona researching my familia roots with the Maria Mercedes Marquez de McLeland. I learned of the Rancho de La Boca de Santa Monica Land Grant of Francisco Marquez-Reyes Familia and the Ernest Marquez research works collection at USC Library. I would like to visit there and the Pascual Marquez Cemetery to bring this historical record to my Familia in AZ.
Dona Maria Marquez de McLeland of Florence,AZ was my great-great grand mother and grand mother of my father Manuel McLeland Delci (DelCid) of Florence and Chandler, AZ.
I wish they could do a cover the zoot suit riots. U know I ask people from my race about zoot suits riot. The ones who know see. The learnt because of American me.
Did they show this on PBS channel 13 they had a documentary called somting in Spanish. But it a different Era the 20 to 40s . They covered thing happen like zoot suiter riot.a subject that for long wasn't really covered. Most people learn about from movies like American me.
Still to this day we are the forgotten race, we have and always will be Native American because we come from the land of Aztlan. La Raza is who we are, Chicano is who I am. Still looking for the respect we deserve and the recognition that we are a race. Just like white, black and we also have contributed to America. I have been saying this for years about our race. We do not get the recognition we deserve in this country, not even on main stream media to this very day. The WW2 draft card listed us as BROWN!! and shows no race for Mexican-Americans. TO THIS DAY IN THE TEXAS DRIVER LICENSE REGISTRATION WE ARE STILL NOT A RACE!! Now they want us with the ethnicity. How come we don't have an ethnicity for German,Irish Americans or any other white country that came to OUR LAND!!! But if we have not been recognized by now, then we never will be. CHICANO'S ARE THE FORGOTTEN RACE in this era. I am and always will be in my heart Chicano, La Raza!!
It's called American simulation my brother! It's the same reason they are trying to erase history today by banning certain books and dictating what is allowed to be teached in school.
does anyone know if theres similar activism like this going on right now in LA ... especially with the new administration conducting raids there i think its time for action
Hello everyone I'm trying to get the word out about a Mexican American name Tim Sanchez his running for Congress in 2024 if he wins he will be the first Chicano to represent Oakland CA in Congress he has a website so if anybody can Donate please Do thank you gracias
"LA RAZA" are the same people that leave the hood and forget to better the community. I'm 2nd generation and I can say I don't see too many 2nd generations where I'm from. Or 3rd generation for that matter.
I know that a lot of it had to do with the very dangerous street gangs and in the very area my mom and dad grew up the Highland Park/Cypress Park area, The Avenues were horrible drug dealing and murdering thugs. It took a heck of a lot of time to finally break them up...I understand what you're talking about because my dad, a second generation Mexican-American, couldn't wait to get out of the area where his parents lived and move to the San Gabriel area..My mom graduated from Franklin in 1951 when the school was very much white...My dad went to Cathedral where sports, especially football, became his religion. The funny thing is that now that I live in Downtown LA because I love the culture of the city, I always end up in Highland Park to shop or just do stuff like sit at Sycamore Park were our old parish, Divine Savior, where I was baptized, used to have their annual family picnics.
Sergio Rodriguez Some of us that are 1st generation who grew up in East LA and become professionals represent “La Raza,” in different arenas. We carry the humility and integrity that were derived from living in “the hood” and use that to help those who experience the same struggles. The difference is that we don’t limit ourselves to working only in the hoods that we grew up in. Some of us serve as catalyst for change in the hood, in the schools, in the hospitals, and all over the world because truth be told “La Raza” is everywhere. The “bettering of the community “ can stem from simply being a kid who grew up in the Wyvernwood projects, going to Roosevelt, getting a bachelors, receiving a masters and going on to becoming a director of a program. The bettering comes from not being another statistic and betting the odds. It can also be reflected in the narratives that we share about how our lives circumstances cannot be used as an excuse for failure. From my opinion, La Raza is more than just a term, that is used to categorize an ethnic culture, it is a trait that is embedded in the life of a person who experienced oppression, discrimination, and unfair treatment and for those reasons we inherit GANAS to prove the world that we are good enough or better than. It is a characteristic that can be labeled as a side effect of the struggle.
@@Lala-tr9hf I agree with most of what you said but what's good of bettering yourself for the community if you turn your back on the very same community?
Sergio Rodriguez we don’t turn our back on the community, we look at it as the catalyst of our dreams because that’s where it all began and we go back to it as volunteers, outreach, teachers, and provide mentoring or internships. We are active participants of change and creators of hope. We walk the talk because we lived the hustle.
I ask my self what happen this days why most of larraza vote for trump that means future it's gonna be like those days again ? Because that's he wants to do america hate again

Why Don't We Learn all of this in School !?
My thought exactly.

It's called American simulation my brother! It's the same reason they are trying to erase history today by banning certain books and dictating what is allowed to be teached in school.
I know events like zoot suit riot u really did see mutch about. Seems today people learn about it from movies like American me
