Brown-eyed children of the sun : lessons from the Chicano movement, 1965-1975

George Mariscal (Author), University of New Mexico Press (Publisher)
"Brown-Eyed Children of the Sun is a new study of the Chicano/a movement, El Movimiento, and its multiple ideologies. The late 1960s marked the first time U.S. society witnessed Americans of Mexican descent on a national stage as self-determined individuals and collective actors rather than second-class citizens. George Mariscal's book examines the Chicano movement's quest for equal rights and economic justice in the context of the Viet Nam War era."--Jacket
