Chicano Studies Research Center Annual Report 2018-2019 Chicano Studies Research Center Annual Report 2018-2019 Submitted by Director Chon A. Noriega In memory of Leobardo F.

DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE The UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center (CSRC) was founded in 1969 with a commitment to foster multi-disciplinary research as part of the overall mission of the university. It is one of four ethnic studies centers within the Institute of American Cultures (IAC), which reports to the UCLA Office of the Chancellor. The CSRC is also a co-founder and serves as the official archive of the Inter-University Program for Latino Research (IUPLR, est. 1983), a consortium of Latino research centers that now includes twenty-five institutions dedicated to increasing the number of scholars and intellectual leaders conducting Latino-focused research. The CSRC houses a library and special collections archive, an academic press, externally-funded research projects, community-based partnerships, competitive grant and fellowship programs, and several gift funds. It maintains a public programs calendar on campus and at local, national, and international venues. The CSRC also maintains strategic research partnerships with UCLA schools, departments, and research centers, as well as with major museums across the U.S. The CSRC holds six (6) positions for faculty that are appointed in academic departments. These appointments expand the CSRC’s research capacity as well as the curriculum in Chicana/o and Latina/o studies across UCLA. In the 2018-19 academic year, the CSRC accomplished significant outcomes in all five areas: research, press, library/archive, grants and fellowships, public programs. Achievements include the receipt of a $1.03 million grant from the University of California Multicampus Research Program Initiative, a groundbreaking report on the lack of Latino representation at the Smithsonian Institution that garnered national media attention, and CSRC involvement in public programs and exhibitions that were seen by over 425,000 people in the US, Mexico, and Europe. In addition, the CSRC received the 2019 Excellence in Diversity Award from the College Art Association, while the CSRC Director and CSRC Librarian were recognized for their work by the National Hispanic Media Coalition and the Los Angeles City Historical Society, respectively. And, as if that were not enough, the CSRC successfully underwent a six-year external review conducted by the Office of Interdisciplinary and Cross Campus Affairs. Special recognition is in order for the dedicated staff who made it all happen despite having one less staff member for most of the year due to the retirement of the MSO at the end of September 2018. The CSRC staff have always risen to the challenges we face year-to-year, so that CSRC can continue to foster research that makes a difference. We are grateful for the support we have from our volunteers, donors, community partners, faculty, and students. Finally, I wish to acknowledge the passing this year of two individuals whose contributions have meant a lot to the CSRC: our longtime UCLA colleague Leobardo Estrada and our community partner Raúl Ruíz. In 1977 Estrada was one of the first faculty members appointed at UCLA through a new chancellorial initiative that allocated Institutional FTE to the CSRC and other ethnic studies research centers. Leo excelled at research, teaching, mentoring, and service, and he will be deeply missed. Raúl Ruíz, professor emeritus at Cal State Northridge, was a lifelong Chicano activist, educator, and writer, and he was an editor and one of the photographers of the 3 community-based La Raza newspaper and later magazine (1967-77). Over 25,000 images from La Raza have now been digitized by the CSRC thanks to Raúl and the other photographers who worked for the publication. Their images became the basis of the CSRC-initiated exhibition LA RAZA at the Autry Museum. Raúl and Leo’s generation dedicated their lives to challenging the inequities and discrimination facing the Mexican-descent population. CSRC would not be here today without their efforts. 4 HIGHLIGHTS External Affairs ● The CSRC received $1,375,406 in new grants and gifts for various projects and initiatives. This includes a $1.03 million UC Multicampus Research Program Initiative grant for the 2.5 year project “Critical Mission Studies at California’s Crossroads,” an estate gift valued at over $211,000, and a gift of $20,000 to go toward endowing the Tamar Diana Wilson Fund for the Study of Urban Poverty. Included in the 138 individual gifts were matching gifts the CSRC received from Google and Microsoft Corporation. ● The CSRC was mentioned in eighty-six (86) broadcast and editorial features, blogs, and news articles from media outlets including NBC News, American Public Radio, Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, Chicago Magazine , and Artforum. Research ● The CSRC launched the research project “Critical Mission Studies at California’s Crossroads” with Charlene Villaseñor Black, CSRC associate director and professor of art history and Chicana/o studies, as lead principal investigator on the project, which reconsiders California’s twenty-one Spanish-Indian missions. Research labs will be established at CSRC, UC Riverside, UC Santa Cruz, and UC San Diego, where faculty, graduate students, undergraduates, national and international experts, and community partners will draw on the academic disciplines of Native American, Chicana/o, California, and Mexican studies to create an inclusive narrative of California history. ● The CSRC continued research-based collaborations with research centers at twenty-five (25) other universities through the Inter-University Program for Latino Research (IUPLR) and with such community partners as the Autry Museum, which through February 2019 displayed the La Raza exhibition that had been developed in collaboration with the CSRC for the Getty’s Pacific Standard Time Initiative. Finally, CSRC partnered with the Luskin School of Public Affairs on its new Latino Politics and Policy Initiative on a research report assessing Latino representation at the Smithsonian Institution, and partnered with the Music School on a symposium and yearlong exhibition based on the Strachwitz Frontera Collection of Mexican and Mexican American Music. 5 ● The CSRC continued to fund faculty and student research projects, including through special funds supporting research on Spanish-language music, Latinos and urban poverty, and Latinos and education. For 2019-20, the CSRC awarded ten (10) research grants to scholars and students in the following UCLA departments: anthropology; Chicana/o studies; film, television, and digital media; sociology; Spanish and Portuguese, and urban planning. ● The CSRC welcomed six (6) visiting scholars in residence. These postdoctoral scholars represented the following institutions and areas of study: University of California, Santa Cruz (Education), Universidad del Norte, Barranquilla (Communications); University of Denver (sociology); Willamette University (English and ethnic studies); and University of Pennsylvania (English and Latina/o studies). Library ● Nearly 5,000 people visited the CSRC Library, our highest number ever, including classes that received library instruction and school groups that received library tours. There were 81 formal requests by students, scholars, and community members for archival materials. ● After a concerted effort to eliminate duplicate objects in order to conserve space, CSRC holdings now consist of over 560,000 items. These items include 434,067 digital objects, 625 archival and special collections, over 13,000 books and monographs, 5,010 journals, 1,047 publications, 1,068 theses and dissertations, approximately 100 oral history interviews, and roughly 4,600 Chicano/Latino distinct newspapers, some from the nineteenth century. The Library acquired eleven (11) new special collections and additions to four (4) existing collections. Fifteen (15) finding aids were completed and placed on the Online Archive of California (OAC) ● Six (6) exhibition catalogs and two (2) documentary projects were published utilizing images from CSRC archival collections. As in past years, images were regularly lent to museums and gallery exhibitions, filmmakers, scholars, and the news media. ● CSRC Librarian Xaviera Flores received a 2019 Archives Education and Advocacy Award from the Los Angeles City Historical Society (LACHS). Press ● The CSRC Press published two (2) books, ten (10) issues of the CSRC electronic newsletter, and two (2) issues of Aztlán: A Journal of Chicano Studies , a highly 6 competitive peer-reviewed journal that publishes only 25 percent of submissions. The year was also spent in development on seven (7) book projects. ● The CSRC Press won thirteen (13) international book awards and was nominated for four (4) additional awards (winners will be announced Fall 2019). Community Relations ● CSRC organized and co-sponsored forty-seven (47) public programs and lent materials to seventeen (17) exhibitions, which combined, were seen by over 426,000 people in the US, Mexico, and Europe. ● CSRC received a grant from the UCLA Office of Interdisciplinary and Cross Campus Affairs to present a symposium on the Frontera Collection in collaboration with the Music

    “I live in this liminal state between worlds, between realities, between systems of knowledge, between symbology systems.” “Vivo en este estado liminal entre mundos, entre realidades, entre sistemas de conocimiento, entre sistemas de simbología.” —Gloria Anzaldúa, Interviews (2000, 268) TRANSLATION AS “TRANS-INTERPRETATION”: Notes on Transforming the Book Methodology of the Oppressed into Metodología de la emancipación Chela Sandoval Methodology of the Oppressed is idea, method and book made, remade, translated and trans-interpreted; consequences of movement across histories, geographies, and peoples.1 One of these makings shifted the title of the book Methodology of the Oppressed (2000) into Metodología de la emancipación (2016)—referred to in what follows as MoTo and MoLe. This particular shift points readers directly to the profound transformations in meaning that occur whenever language undergoes translation. One happy consequence of the transformation of MoTo into MoLe shift is that one of MoTo’s primary reasons for being rises to the surface.

  • Music, Movement, Performance, and Power in the Conjunto Dancehalls of the Texas—Mexico Borderlands
    Amor en Aztlán: Music, Movement, Performance, and Power in the Conjunto Dancehalls of the Texas—Mexico Borderlands by Wayne Alejandro Wolbert A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnic Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Laura E. Pérez, Chair Professor David Montejano Professor Paola Bacchetta Summer 2019 © Wayne Alejandro Wolbert 2019 Abstract Amor en Aztlán: Music, Movement, Performance, and Power in the Conjunto Dancehalls of the Texas—Mexico Borderlands by Wayne Alejandro Wolbert Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnic Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Laura E. Pérez, Chair This dissertation examines the Texas Mexican musical genre known as conjunto and its concomitant social world. In this work I situate conjunto within a broader context of Mexican American cultural production, Texas Mexican popular music, and the shared histories of the U.S.- Mexico borderlands. As a social history, the dissertation traces the development of the genre and its practitioners across the twentieth century to the present. I examine interactions of power; expressions of identity; and constructions of race, class, and gender through movement (dance), performance (instrumentation and playing), and place (the dancehall or nite club) within and around San Antonio and South Texas. I argue that conjunto is an embodiment of Xicanx thought and knowledge, an everyday act of resistance and reaffirmation. 1 Dedicación

  • The “Gente-Fication” of Boyle Heights Magally A. Miranda Alcazar FMST 194, March 2015 Professor Felicity Amaya-Schaeffer
    The “Gente-fication” of Boyle Heights Magally A. Miranda Alcazar FMST 194, March 2015 Professor Felicity Amaya-Schaeffer Many people have written about the impact of gentrification on struggling barrios and ghettos. In January 22, 2014, National Public Radio (NPR) published an article and an accompanying podcast by Laura Sullivan called "Gentrification May Actually Be Boon to Longtime Residents." In it, Sullivan, one of NPR’s “most decorated journalists,” elicits the support of two men to assist in making the point suggested by her piece’s title. The first interviewee is a Washington, DC resident and retired cook named Bobby Foster, Jr. Foster. We can probably assume based on his use of African American vernacular is an elderly black man despite the author’s altogether avoidance of race. She approaches the man outside a grocery store that survived what she calls the ‘crack wars’ and ensuing urban blight of the 1980’s, and remains standing amid a gentrifying neighborhood. Foster, she says, is “conflicted” and we proceed to hear him say in a rather casual way that there are good and bad things. The second interviewee is a Columbia University professor named Lance Freeman who studied how many people were pushed out of their homes after gentrification. He found that higher costs could push out the elderly, people with disabilities and those who lack rent control, but that a lot of renters overall were willing to stay with the addition of new parks, safer streets and schools and jobs. With the help of research by the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland, she emphasizes that the reality of higher credit scores for residents who stay does not measure up to the slogan “Gentrification is class war” popularized by New York anti-gentrification activists in 1988.

Running Head: A SOCIOLINGUISTIC SURVEY OF “LATINX” 1 A Sociolinguistic Survey of “Latinx” Haley F. Patterson University of North Georgia A SOCIOLINGUISTIC SURVEY OF “LATINX” 2 Abstract This overview examines the usage of the term “Latinx” from its coinage to its inclusion in the Oxford English Dictionary’s top ten candidates for “Word of the Year” in 2016. The study evaluates the term’s future based on its projected use in certain geographical areas and its adoption by certain professions and niche social groups. The most common motives for usage include a desire to disrupt the social normative of a binary gender system, to acknowledge the intersectionality between the LGBTQ and Latino communities, and to battle the subjugation of non-gender conforming Hispanics. This work analyzes which professional arenas endorse “Latinx,” including journalism and academia, as well as which writing mediums espouse it most often. Those who advocate against “Latinx” cite the imposition of English onto Spanish, which does not morphologically accommodate a word-final “x.” This study analyzes whether the term more effectively addresses a social issue or delays the solution to one, as well as whether its goal is to take away majority privilege or to belabor an indiscriminate equality of all.
