Mario T. García: A Pioneer in Chicana/o Studies

In the early 1970s, a generation of scholars sought to bring the Mexican American civil rights movement into the corridors of higher education, creating the academic discipline that became known as Chicana/o Studies. Mario T. García would prove to be one of the most prolific and influential Chicano historians of this founding generation, authoring over twenty books in a career that would span nearly five decades. This film offers an in-depth look at the scholar behind these historical works and the academic field he helped shape.
