Originally founded as a venue for teachers, researchers, students, and community partners to share research and discuss the theoretical, political and ethical implications of community-based writing and writing instruction, Reflections publishes a lively collection of scholarship on public rhetoric and civic writing, occasional essays and stories both from and about community writing and literacy projects, interviews with leading workers in the field, and reviews of current scholarship touching on these issues and topics. We welcome materials that emerge from research; showcase community- based and/or student writing; investigate and represent literacy practices in diverse community settings; discuss theoretical, political and ethical implications of community-based rhetorical practices; or explore connections among public rhetoric, civic engagement, service learning, and current scholarship in composition studies and related fields.

This will distinguish you from Texas A & M University – others. Educating oneself is easy, but educating Corpus Christi ourselves to help other human beings to help the community is much more difficult.” —Cesar Chávez “Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can’t practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.” —Maya Angelou “There must exist a paradigm, a practical model for social change that includes an understanding of ways to transform consciousness that are linked to efforts to transform structures.” —bell hooks, killing rage: Ending Racism “The teacher is of course an artist, but being an artist does not mean that he or she can make the 1 Reflections | Volume 13.1, Fall 2013 profile, can shape the students. What the educator does in teaching is to make it possible for the students to become themselves.” —Paulo Freire, We Make the Road by Walking: Conversations on Education and Social Change few years ago in 2009 when Steve Parks was editor, Reflections came out with a special issue entitled Democracia, ¿pero A para quien?, Democracy, but for whom?. Many scholars and teachers were inspired to use a number of articles in future research projects. That issue offered much needed research, voices, and hope for Latin@s, especially those with a foci in community engagement and social justice. However, much has transpired with Latin@s since 2009 that jeopardizes the progress of Latin@ issues of education, literacy, immigration, and social justice. This is particularly true in Arizona with the subsequent HB 2281 that threatened culturally relevant ethnic studies programs. A few years before, Proposition 209 dismantled bilingual education. SB 1070 came as another assault with its racial profiling of Latin@s in Arizona. We, as special co- editors at Texas Hispanic Serving Institutions, as well as other members of the Latino Caucus of the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) and Conference of College Composition and Communication (CCCC) listened with great sadness and anger as our Arizona members recounted the dismantling of educational programs validating Mexican American students through culturally relevant literatures and bilingual education. The caucus, along with other identity-based caucuses, had just started the Writing and Working for Change project (see http://www.ncte.org/centennial/ change) with Samantha Blackmon, Cristina Kirklighter, and Steve Parks. Cristina had interviewed two NCTE Chicanos of Teachers of English founders, Dr. Carlota Cardenas de Dwyer and Dr. Felipe Ortega de Gasca. A third interviewee and early member of the caucus, Dr. Roseann Dueñas Gonzalez from the University of Arizona, played an instrumental role in the NCTE Task Force of Racism and Bias during the 80’s. These leaders played a pivotal role in pushing for the inclusion of Chicano/a literature and bilingual education during the 70’s and 80’s in textbooks and within curricula across the nation. 2 Editor’s Introduction | Isabel Baca & Cristina Kirklighter Honoring those who came before us and respecting these historical contexts are an important part of what many Latin@s value within and outside of academia. As part of this historical collective, we, as special editors, knew that the Arizona affront to Latin@s needed to be told by those like Dr. Roseann Dueñas Gonzalez who began teaching Chicano/a literature to her students in the late 1960’s and

The Founding President was Francisca Flores, a Chicana activist already well respected for her many decades of community works. Recognizing that there were few organizations that met the needs of Latina women, nine resolutions were presented to the full body calling for the establishment of a Chicana/Mexicana women's commission. The resolution called for a commission that could direct it’s efforts toward organizing and networking women that they might assume leadership positions within the Chicano movement and in the community. Designed to disseminate news and information regarding the achievements of Chicana/Mexican women, and promote programs that provide solutions for women and their families; the resolutions read as follows: RESOLUTION TO ESTABLISH COMISIÓN FEMENIL MEXICANA NACIONAL, INC.

  • THE ROLE of THIRD-PARTY FUNDERS in the DEVELOPMENT of MEXICAN AMERICAN INTEREST GROUP ADVOCACY by Devin Fernandes
    CONSTRUCTING THE CAUSE: THE ROLE OF THIRD-PARTY FUNDERS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF MEXICAN AMERICAN INTEREST GROUP ADVOCACY by Devin Fernandes A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY © Devin Fernandes 2018 All rights reserved ABSTRACT For the last 25 years, scholars have raised alarms over the disappearance of local civic membership organizations since the 1960s and a concomitant explosion of third-party-funded, staff-dominated, professional advocacy organizations. This change is said to contribute to long- term declines in civic and political participation, particularly among minorities and low income Americans, and by extension, diminished electoral fortunes of the Democratic Party. Rather than mobilize mass publics and encourage their political participation, the new, largely progressive advocacy groups finance themselves independently through foundation grant money and do most of their work in Washington where they seek behind the scenes influence with unelected branches of government. However, in seeking to understand this transition “from membership to advocacy,” most current scholarship focuses on the socio-political factors that made it possible. We have little understanding of the internal dynamics sustaining individual organizations themselves to account for why outside-funded groups are able to emerge and thrive or the ways in which dependence on external subsidies alters their operating incentives. To address this hole in the literature, the dissertation engages in a theory-building effort through a case study analysis of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF), founded in 1968. Drawing on archival materials from MALDEF and its primary benefactor, the Ford Foundation, the dissertation opens the black box of internal decision-making to understand in real time how resource dependence on non-beneficiaries shaped the maintenance calculus of its leaders and in turn, group behavior.

    12_Gosse_11.qxd 11/7/05 6:54 PM Page 153 Chapter 11 WOMEN’S LIBERATION AND SECOND-WAVE FEMINISM: “THE PERSONAL IS POLITICAL” Objectively, the chances seem nil that we could start a movement based on anything as distant to general American thought as a sex-caste system. —Casey Hayden and Mary King, “Sex and Caste,” November 18, 1965 Women are an oppressed class. Our oppression is total, affecting every facet of our lives. We are exploited as sex objects, breeders, domestic servants, and cheap labor. We are considered inferior beings, whose only purpose is to enhance men’s lives. Our humanity is denied. Our prescribed behavior is enforced by the threat of physical violence.... We identify the agents of our oppression as men. Male supremacy is the oldest, most basic form of domination. All other forms of exploitation and oppression (racism, capitalism, imperialism, etc.) are extensions of male supremacy; men dominate women, a few men dominate the rest . All men receive economic, sexual, and psychological benefits from male supremacy. All men have oppressed women. We identify with all women. We define our best interest as that of the poorest, most brutally exploited woman. The time for individual skirmishes has passed. This time we are going all the way. Copyright © 2006.

Orozco This essay is an assessment of the literature on Mexican -origin women's participation in voluntary associations and politics in the nineteenth and twentieth century. In making this assessment, I will: l) discuss conceptual problems in the literature; 2) explain why there is a paucity of research on the topic; 3) examine racial, gender, and sexuality ideologies to explain these gaps; 4) point to these ideologies in the current literature; and 5) provide directions for reconceptualizing the study of Mexican- origin women in organizational life. Attention will be given to heterosexual women and lesbians in mixed -gender organizations, and associations composed entirely of women. In 1967, when historian Kaye Lynn Briegel began her thesis on Mexican American political associations, she noted that "it was curious" that she found only one article on Mexican American organizations in an academic journal.' Pre -1970 scholars, primarily European - American men, had largely ignored la Raza.

A Chicana may have recently arrived from Mexico, or her ancestors may have been in the Southwest since 1520(or before) or in the Midwest since the 1880's. She may be rural, urban, poor, middle class or Ph.D., a high school dropout, a teacher, or a migrant. She does share some basic, and heterogeneous, roots in the development of Indian and Spanish culture and history. She also shares the history of involvement and participation which has been a way of life for the Chicano community in the U.S. since 1848. Documenting the development of Mexican American women in Mexico and the U.S., this monograph discusses: the Chicana's historical legacy during Mexico's Pre-Columbian and Colonial Periods, its War for Independence, the 1910 Revolution, and during the United States Colonial Period and history.between 1840 and 1960; Chicanas in the U.S.
