    Chicano Movement PPD 177 and CHC/LAT 166 Humanities Gateway 1800 Spring 2018 Thursday 7-9:50pm Instructor: Rodolfo D. Torres Email: [email protected] Office Hours: 4-5pm Thursday and by appointment. TA: Ashley Hernandez Office Hours: Monday 12-1:00pm & Thursday 5:30-6:30pm Office Location: Social Ecology I, Rm. 320 *Please email all questions to TA "I'm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will." Antonio Gramsci--Prison Notebooks Students Demand School Reforms at LAUSD Board Meeting:1968 COURSE DESCRIPTION: (syllabus is subject to change) It was exactly fifty years ago last month when thousands of East Los Angeles Chicano and Chicana students walked out of their high schools to protest the poor quality of education. Your instructor, had just dropped out of Lincoln High School in 1967. One of the schools that participated in the Walkouts. A unique aspect of this course is that it will be taught by a veteran of the Chicano movement. Thus. your instructor’s personal life is a narrative of El Movimiento, thus this course will offer a unique personal, political, and intellectual perspective and critique of the Movement and the wider civil rights movement of Torres’ generation. Your instructor feels both honored and humbled to have an opportunity to teach this course for the 18th time since his UC Irvine faculty appointment. This feeling is especially meaningful on this 50th anniversary of the East LA blow-outs. In two years we will be commemorating another historic moment in recent movement history—the Chicano Moratorium of August 29th 1970---the anti-war demonstration that took place in East Los Angeles.

  • Los Veteranos—Latinos in WWII
    Los Veteranos—Latinos in WWII Over 500,000 Latinos (including 350,000 Mexican Americans and 53,000 Puerto Ricans) served in WWII. Exact numbers are difficult because, with the exception of the 65th Infantry Regiment from Puerto Rico, Latinos were not segregated into separate units, as African Americans were. When war was declared on December 8, 1941, thousands of Latinos were among those that rushed to enlist. Latinos served with distinction throughout Europe, in the Pacific Theater, North Africa, the Aleutians and the Mediterranean. Among other honors earned, thirteen Medals of Honor were awarded to Latinos for service during WWII. In the Pacific Theater, the 158th Regimental Combat Team, of which a large percentage was Latino and Native American, fought in New Guinea and the Philippines. They so impressed General MacArthur that he called them “the greatest fighting combat team ever deployed in battle.” Latino soldiers were of particular aid in the defense of the Philippines. Their fluency in Spanish was invaluable when serving with Spanish speaking Filipinos. These same soldiers were part of the infamous “Bataan Death March.” On Saipan, Marine PFC Guy Gabaldon, a Mexican-American from East Los Angeles who had learned Japanese in his ethnically diverse neighborhood, captured 1,500 Japanese soldiers, earning him the nickname, the “Pied Piper of Saipan.” In the European Theater, Latino soldiers from the 36th Infantry Division from Texas were among the first soldiers to land on Italian soil and suffered heavy casualties crossing the Rapido River at Cassino. The 88th Infantry Division (with draftees from Southwestern states) was ranked in the top 10 for combat effectiveness.

  • Aspiring to the Impracticable: Alternatives to Incarceration in the Era of Mass Incarceration
    (DO NOT DELETE) 5/19/2009 7:16:47 PM ASPIRING TO THE IMPRACTICABLE: ALTERNATIVES TO INCARCERATION IN THE ERA OF MASS INCARCERATION MARSHA WEISSMAN In 1976, a remarkable handbook for reducing the reliance on incarceration was produced by a group of ordinary citizens known as the Prison Research Education Action Project (PREAP). Instead of Prisons1 was written to call attention to the overuse of incarceration at a time when the United States prison population was about 250,000.2 The handbook recommended the development and use of alternatives-to-incarceration (ATI) programs as a means to “excarcerate,” defined by the authors as “[p]rograms or procedures that move away from the notion of imprisonment as a response to lawbreaking.”3 ATI programs were viewed as embedded within communities and as options that offered prospects for reconciliation and community empowerment, in addition to alternative ways to achieve accountability. PREAP’s analysis of crime and punishment, including both ATI and decarceration strategies, was set within the larger contexts of poverty, inequality, and racism. More than thirty years later, most jurisdictions around the country now offer ATI programs. Yet many present day ATI programs have been divorced from considerations of the socio-political and economic context of crime and punishment and stripped of the holistic framework explained in 1976. ATI programs have instead become part of a technocratic criminal justice system, characterized by punishment, increasing control over social Marsha Weissman, M.P.A. is the founder and Executive Director of the Center for Community Alternatives.

  • George I. Sanchez and the Civil Rights Movement: 1940-1960
    George I. Sanchez and the Civil Rights Movement: 1940-1960 Ricardo Romo* This article is a tribute to Dr. George I. Sanchez and examines the important contributions he made in establishing the American Council of Spanish-Speaking People (ACSSP) in 1951. The ACSSP funded dozens of civil rights cases in the Southwest during the early 1950's and repre- sented the first large-scale effort by Mexican Americans to establish a national civil rights organization. As such, ACSSP was a precursor of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF) and other organizations concerned with protecting the legal rights of Mexican Americans in the Southwest. The period covered here extends from 1940 to 1960, two crucial decades when Mexican Ameri- cans made a concerted effort to challenge segregation in public schools, discrimination in housing and employment, and the denial of equal ac- cess to public places such as theaters, restaurants, and barber shops. Although Mexican Americans are still confronted today by de facto seg- regation and job discrimination, it is of historical and legal interest that Mexican American legal victories, in areas such as school desegregation, predated by many years the 1954 Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education and the civil rights movement of the 1960's. Sanchez' pioneering leadership and the activities of ACSSP merit exami- nation if we are to fully comprehend the historical struggle of the Mexi- can American civil rights movement. In a recent article, Karen O'Conner and Lee Epstein traced the ori- gins of MALDEF to the 1960's civil rights era.' The authors argued that "Chicanos early on recongized their inability to seek rights through traditional political avenues and thus sporadically resorted to litigation ..

  • Racial Justice Through Class Solidarity Within Communities of Color
    The Community-Building Project: Racial Justice Through Class Solidarity Within Communities of Color Joseph Erasto Jaramillot INTRODUCTION As people of color continue to face racial and socioeconomic subordination in this country, one wonders when, if ever, the "elusive quest for racial justice"' will end. Intellectuals dedicated to the pursuit of racial justice have focused their work on unmasking the operation of racism and white privilege and recognizing the perspectives of the oppressed. One central insight of this approach is the need to take race into account when analyzing the application of supposedly "race neutral" but so often racially discriminatory criteria. This strategy provides a theoretical basis for transforming society's view of racism and race relations. However, until the dominant culture becomes genuinely receptive to these ideas, communities of color will continue to suffer.2 Indeed, current political discourse adds fuel Copyright 0 1996 by Joseph Jaramillo. t Joseph Erasto Jaramillo received his J.D. from the University of California, Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall), and his B.A. from the University of California at Davis. He is currently a staff attorney at the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF) in San Francisco. He completed this Comment before he joined MALDEF. He would like to thank Professor Jerome McCristal Culp, Jr., of Duke University School of Law for his insight, former La Raza Law Journal Co- Editor-in-Chief Robert Salinas for his assistance and support, and Susana Martinez and Robby Mockler for their helpful editing and feedback. This Comment is dedicated to the committed gente of La Raza Law Students Association at Boalt Hall and all other schools, who give true meaning to the word "community." 1.
