Week 14: November 28 - December 2

This week we'll be focusing on Chicanx/Latinx activism starting with a jigsaw where we'll research and present our findings to the class on six key moments of Latinx organizing:

1. Emma Tenayuca and the Pecan Shellers Strike

2. LULAC and Mendez v. Westminster

3. Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, and the United Farm Workers

4. The 1968 East L.A. Walkouts

5. The National Chicano Moratorium

6. The Brown Berets and the Young Lords

Afterwards we'll watch Precious Knowledge and discuss the battle over Ethnic Studies courses brewing across the country.
