This indispensable resource for students investigating social, political, feminist, and artistic activism, provides an overview of the major trends, influences, and creative accomplishments of the Chicana and Chicano Movement.

The impact of the Chicana/Chicano Movement on today's America can be seen in the halls of power, educational access and equity, museum exhibitions of Chicana/Chicano art, and positive self-image among Chicanas and Chicanos. It is also reflected in media arts, theater, music, and dance. This book provides students investigating Mexican-American or Chicana/Chicano-Latina/Latino social and political activism and social justice advocacy with an overview of the major trends and influences of the Chicana and Chicano Movement during the volatile 1960s and 1970s and the movement's direction in and impact on the following decades.

The book is organized alphabetically with entries on significant organizations, places, events, and ideas that were important to the Chicana and Chicano Movement in the United States, enhanced by photographs that provide additional context and visual aids. Coverage includes protests, marches, walk-outs, strikes, boycotts, and other actions taken to call attention to the injustices Chicanas/Chicanos were experiencing, especially throughout the Southwest. High school and first-year undergraduate students will find this to be an invaluable research tool to support understanding of this important social and political movement.

Adelaida R. Del Castillo is Associate Professor and former Chair of the Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies at San Diego State University. Norma Iglesias-Prieto is Professor and former Department Chair of the Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies at San Diego State University.
