Acquisition Information Donated by CCLR board of directors, 2000. Organization History El Centro Cultural de la Raza is a Chicano Cultural Center founded in 1970 in San Diego, as an alternative program to encourage and facilitate artistic growth and cultural interchange in the San Diego communities. It is currently a member of the American Association of Museums. Centro Cultural has given birth to many artistic groups, such as MALAF, the Mexican American Liberation Art Front, and Teatro Mestizo. It also provides art classes and drama, music, dance and arts and crafts Presentations, many of which have origins in Mexico and "Aztlán," a term used by Chicanos to indicate the American Southwest. Tours and presentations have been designed to give background on various cultural activities. The Centro's circular building has offices and workrooms, studios, a theater, and much wall space for mural projects. It is one of the largest Chicano cultural arts buildings in the Southwest. The cultural center supports and encourages the creative expression "of those people who are indigenous to the border region." Although established in 1970, its origins stem to the mid to late 1960's, when local Chicano artists were becoming aware that they needed a place where they could develop and preserve the contributions and ideologies of San Diego's native population. Those active in forming the center and the organization of Los Toltecas en Aztlán, the organizing body of the center, were Salvador Torres, Guillermo Aranda, Ruben de Anda, Mario Acevedo, Victor Ochoa, David Avalos, the Enrique Family, the Delia Moreno Family, and others. Though much of the formative years of the center's philosophy and ideology began in the mid 60's, the center's official inauguration was in July 1970 when the city of San Diego allowed Torres and company to locate the cultural center in Balboa Park. Through much political and social opposition in the 1970's due to subject matter of murals and debate on the question of where they would be based, the cultural center endured and became very strong with the backing of its community members. As a cultural center, it not only promoted creative expression in art and formal art classes, but also included in its busy seven day-a-week schedule workshops in danza folklorica, interpretive dance, music, theatre, sculpture, and a multidisciplinary 'Tolteca' class. These classes were the basis of all activities that took place, as education of and for the border culture was important to the Toltecas en Aztlán. Closely related are the multi-media events that took place. These Guide to the Centro Cultural de la CEMA 12 2 Raza Archives CEMA 12 events incorporated music, dance and poetry to generate traditional and indigenous Mexican theatrical motifs. Groups that formed through the work of the Center include: Ballet Folklorico in Aztlán, founded by Herminia Enrique;Congreso de Artistas Chicanos en Aztlán, founded by Salvador Torres;and Trio Moreno, a musical group Scope and Content of Collection The Centro Cultural de la Raza archives represents activities at and involving CCLR and its members between 1971 and 1999.

  • Transculturalism in Chicano Literature, Visual Art, and Film Master's
    Transculturalism in Chicano Literature, Visual Art, and Film Master’s Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Brandeis University Department of Global Studies Jerónimo Arellano, Advisor In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Global Studies by Sarah Mabry August 2018 Transculturalism in Chicano Literature, Visual Art, and Film Copyright by Sarah Mabry © 2018 Dedication Here I acknowledge those individuals by name and those remaining anonymous that have encouraged and inspired me on this journey. First, I would like to dedicate this to my great grandfather, Jerome Head, a surgeon, published author, and painter. Although we never had the opportunity to meet on this earth, you passed along your works of literature and art. Gleaned from your manuscript entitled A Search for Solomon, ¨As is so often the way with quests, whether they be for fish or buried cities or mountain peaks or even for money or any other goal that one sets himself in life, the rewards are usually incidental to the journeying rather than in the end itself…I have come to enjoy the journeying.” I consider this project as a quest of discovery, rediscovery, and delightful unexpected turns. I would like mention one of Jerome’s six sons, my grandfather, Charles Rollin Head, a farmer by trade and an intellectual at heart. I remember your Chevy pickup truck filled with farm supplies rattling under the backseat and a tape cassette playing Mozart’s piano sonata No. 16. This old vehicle metaphorically carried a hard work ethic together with an artistic sensibility.

  • Reclaiming the Rhetoric of Reies Lo´ Pez Tijerina: Border Identity and Agency in ‘‘The Land Grant Question’’ Josue David Cisneros
    Communication Quarterly Vol. 60, No. 5, November–December 2012, pp. 561–587 Reclaiming the Rhetoric of Reies Lo´ pez Tijerina: Border Identity and Agency in ‘‘The Land Grant Question’’ Josue David Cisneros Chicano activist Reies Tijerina’s speech known as ‘‘The Land Grant Question’’ provides a point of analysis in this article for assessing contradictory understandings of Tijerina and his movement, La Alianza Federal de Mercedes. The author explores how in both its rhetorical content and form, Tijerina’s speech navigated and negotiated identity and agency for the Alianza and Mexican Americans. The speech represents border rhetoric, a type of vernacular discourse that migrates across borders, sustains contradictions, and crafts a middle space. Reclaiming Tijerina’s rhetoric extends Chicano movement studies, illuminates notions of rhetorical agency, and highlights a rhetorically-inflected notion of the border. Keywords: Agency; Border Rhetoric; Chicano; Public Address; Reies Lo´pez Tijerina; Social Movement; Vernacular It probably should go without saying that there has been a dearth of scholarship on Chicana=o movement rhetoric relative to that of other freedom struggles of the 1960s and 1970s. Though previous studies traced the movements’ rhetorical contexts and prominent rhetorical themes (Hammerback & Jensen, 1998; Hammerback, Jensen, & Gutierrez, 1985; Jensen & Hammerback, 1982), Holling (2008) astutely observed that past research has largely ‘‘missed [the] opportunity in pushing forward Josue David Cisneros (Ph.D., University of Georgia, 2009) is an assistant professor in the Department of Communication Studies at Northeastern University. This article was adapted from a larger chapter of the author’s dissertation completed under the direction of Dr. Vanessa B.

  • The Shape of Women: Corsets, Crinolines & Bustles
    The Shape of Women: Corsets, Crinolines & Bustles – c. 1790-1900 1790-1809 – Neoclassicism In the late 18th century, the latest fashions were influenced by the Rococo and Neo-classical tastes of the French royal courts. Elaborate striped silk gowns gave way to plain white ones made from printed cotton, calico or muslin. The dresses were typically high-waisted (empire line) narrow tubular shifts, unboned and unfitted, but their minimalist style and tight silhouette would have made them extremely unforgiving! Underneath these dresses, the wearer would have worn a cotton shift, under-slip and half-stays (similar to a corset) stiffened with strips of whalebone to support the bust, but it would have been impossible for them to have worn the multiple layers of foundation garments that they had done previously. (Left) Fashion plate showing the neoclassical style of dresses popular in the late 18th century (Right) a similar style ball- gown in the museum’s collections, reputedly worn at the Duchess of Richmond’s ball (1815) There was public outcry about these “naked fashions,” but by modern standards, the quantity of underclothes worn was far from alarming. What was so shocking to the Regency sense of prudery was the novelty of a dress made of such transparent material as to allow a “liberal revelation of the human shape” compared to what had gone before, when the aim had been to conceal the figure. Women adopted split-leg drawers, which had previously been the preserve of men, and subsequently pantalettes (pantaloons), where the lower section of the leg was intended to be seen, which was deemed even more shocking! On a practical note, wearing a short sleeved thin muslin shift dress in the cold British climate would have been far from ideal, which gave way to a growing trend for wearing stoles, capes and pelisses to provide additional warmth.

    CHICAN@ SOCIOGENICS, CHICAN@ LOGICS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHICAN@ PHILOSOPHY: RUPTURING THE BLACK-WHITE BINARY AND WESTERN ANTI-LATIN@ LOGIC A Dissertation by ANDREW CHRISTOPHER SOTO Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Tommy Curry Committee Members, Gregory Pappas Amir Jaima Marlon James Head of Department, Theodore George May 2018 Major Subject: Philosophy Copyright 2018 Andrew Christopher Soto ABSTRACT The aim of this project is to create a conceptual blueprint for a Chican@ philosophy. I argue that the creation of a Chican@ philosophy is paramount to liberating Chican@s from the imperial and colonial grip of the Western world and their placement in a Black-white racial binary paradigm. Advancing the philosophical and legal insight of Critical Race Theorists and LatCrit scholars Richard Delgado and Juan Perea, I show that Chican@s are physically, psychologically and institutionally threatened and forced by gring@s to assimilate and adopt a racist Western system of reason and logic that frames U.S. institutions within a Black-white racial binary where Chican@s are either analogized to Black suffering and their historical predicaments with gring@s or placed in a netherworld. In the netherworld, Chican@s are legally, politically and socially constructed as gring@s to uphold the Black-white binary and used as pawns to meet the interests of racist gring@s. Placing Richard Delgado and Juan Perea’s work in conversation with pioneering Chican@ intellectuals Octavio I. Romano-V, Nicolas C.
