McCaughan* HIS SPECIAL ISSUE OF SOCIAL JUSTICE BRINGS TOGETHER THE WORK OF SCHOLARS and activists from Mexico and the United States, representing a variety of disciplines and movements, to discuss current trends in the scholarship Tand practices of Mexican and Chicanx1 social movements. The idea to organize a forum to share and critically assess new developments in the social movements of “Greater Mexico” came to the editors in the summer of 2010. Maylei Blackwell, Ed McCaughan, and Devra Weber crossed paths in Oaxaca, Mexico, that summer. Blackwell was helping to lead a workshop on issues of gender and sexuality with an indigenous community affiliated with the Frente Indígena de Organizaciones Binacionales. McCaughan was there completing his manuscript on art and Mexican/ Chicanx social movements, and Weber had been invited to present her research on the Partido Liberal Mexicano for a symposium commemorating the centennial of the Mexican Revolution. As we shared our work and observations about significant political and cultural developments in the social activism of Mexican communities on both sides of the border, we felt compelled to organize a forum in which activists and scholars could reflect on these changes. A great deal has changed—economically, politically, culturally, and intellectu- ally—in the decades since the watershed 1968 Mexican student movement, the historic Chicanx mobilizations of the 1960s and 1970s, and the internationally celebrated EZLN uprising of 1994. Moreover, 25 years have passed since publica- tion of the last English-language anthology to bring together research on a wide variety of Mexican social movements (Foweraker and Craig 1990).

  • Greenlining's 25Th Annual Economic Summit
    510.926.4001 tel The Greenlining Institute 510.926.4010 fax The Greenlining Institute Oakland, California @Greenlining GREENLINING’S 25TH ANNUAL ECONOMIC SUMMIT www.greenlining.org @Greenlining e come together for The Greenlining Institute’s 26th annual Economic Summit at a moment that feels special and pivotal. On the one hand, we face continuing attacks on communities of color and on others who are too often marginalized in this Wsociety. But in 2018, we saw that people of color will no longer just play defense against attacks on our rights; we will lead America toward a vision of equity and justice. That’s why this year’s Summit theme takes its inspiration from the words of Representative Maxine Waters – that famous “reclaiming my time” moment that so quickly went viral – in order to highlight the leaders, especially here in California, who refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. We invite you to listen and be inspired by such stellar figures as Representative Barbara Lee, our Lifetime Achievement Award winner, California Public Utilities Commissioner Martha Guzman Aceves, She The People founder Aimee Alison, Dream Corps President Vien Truong, and acclaimed rapper, activist, producer, screenwriter and film director Boots Riley, among many others. But we also hope you’ll join our interactive Equity Lab in the afternoon and explore practical tools to move the struggle for justice and equity from thinking to doing. And today we will also be saying a very special farewell to Orson Aguilar as he transitions out of Greenlining after 11 years as our President. Orson first came to Greenlining through our Leadership Academy as a young leader more than 20 years ago.

As the child of a dark-skinned Mexican-born father and a white Euro-American mother, Betita met discrimination as she was growing up in segregated Washington, D.C. During World War II, Martinez attended Swarthmore College, where she was the only non- white student on campus. After graduation in 1946, she worked at the newly-established United Nations, where she researched decolonization efforts and strategies. In the late 1950s she became an editor at Simon & Schuster, and later Books and Arts Editor of The Nation magazine. She also became active in the U.S. civil rights movement, directing the New York office of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and participating in SNCC’s Freedom Summer in Mississippi in 1964. From 1968 to 1976, Martinez lived in New Mexico where she became founding editor of El Grito del Norte (The Cry of the North), a monthly community newspaper that linked the Chicano land movement to similar struggles around the world. She served as founding director of the Chicano Communications Center in Albuquerque to teach Chicanos about history and contemporary issues. After moving to California in 1976, Martinez joined the Democratic Workers Party, a Marxist group led by women, and became involved in Central American solidarity work, local struggles for social justice, and grassroots organizing to save public services.

  • Benefit Concert for Olga Talamante
    Benefit concert for Olga Talamante February 12, 1976 A benefit concert for Olga Talamante - 26-year-old Chicana from Gilroy, California, who is the only U.S. citizen imprisoned in Argentina - will be held at 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 20, in the Revelle Cafeteria, at the University of California, San Diego. Talamante, who has been in prison for 13 months, is an honors graduate of the University of California, Santa Cruz. She was teaching English in the city of Azul when she was arrested in November 1974, under the special state of siege laws imposed by President Isabel Peron and the Argentine government. She and several young Argentinians were convicted last September of being present in a home where subversive literature was found. Shortly after her arrest, there were reports that Talamante would be deported but, since she is now appealing her conviction, all talk of deportation appears to have stopped. Her legal counsel, civil rights attorney Leonard Weinglass, who traveled to Azul to investigate Talamante's reports that she had been tortured when arrested and to discover why there had been little action on the part of the U.S. government, claims to have substantiated the young woman's allegations. Talamante's plight has become a cause celebre in the San Francisco Bay area, not just among Chicanos but with feminists and other political activists. Some Bay area newspapers refer to her simply as "Olga." No small influence in focusing attention on the case have been Talamante's poignant letters from prison. National columnist Jack Anderson refers to her as "an American Anne Frank." According to the State Department, U.S.

H-Diplo Roundtable Reviews, Vol. XVI, No. 9 (2014) Introduction by Dustin Walcher, Southern Oregon University uestions as to the motives underlying U.S. foreign policy have long lay at the heart of the field of foreign relations history. Historians consistently weigh the relative Qimport of the search for security, economic self-interest, domestic culture, ideology, and other factors in the policymaking process. In those discussions, the desire to expand human rights abroad rarely emerges as an end in itself. As Michael Schmidli explains, although the concept of ‘human rights’ was very much a product of particular political discourses, the promotion of human rights became an important objective for the Jimmy Carter administration.
