This indispensable resource for students investigating social, political, feminist, and artistic activism, provides an overview of the major trends, influences, creative, and educational 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 Chicana/Chicano and Mexican American 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 by historian Devra Weber, a participant in the movement, 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.

The anthology Queer in Aztlán: Chicano Male Recollections of Consciousness and Coming Out gives readers the opportunity to experience deeply personal narratives from queer Chicanos/Mexicanos, and makes it possible for them to understand and sympathize with the stories’ protagonists. It was also a finalist for a 2014 Lambda Award.The book explores issues of queer youth identity, sexuality, masculinity, homophobia, sexism, and violence in Mexican and American culture, presents a complex view of queer Chicanos/Mexicanos, and contests dominant sexual norms. It challenges current scholarship in Chicana/Chicano studies to expand beyond the traditional confines of male sexuality.The seven sections of the book survey the queer experience from a variety of perspectives through reading selections that focus on presence, recollection, embodied self, men of heart, Coatlicue state, and Jotería studies. A unique transnational bibliography gives emphasis to themes on, or by, queer Chicano and Mexicano authors on male sexuality, homoerotic writing, literary criticism, and fiction.

Bringing together a unique collection of narrative accounts based on the lived experience of queer Chicano/Mexicano sons, this book explores fathers, fathering, and fatherhood. In many ways, the contributors reveal the significance of fathering and representations of fatherhood in the context of queer male sexuality and identity across generations, cultures, class, and Mexican immigrant and Mexican American families. They further reveal how father figures—godfathers, grandfathers, and others—may nurture and express love and hope for the queer young men in their extended family. Divided into six sections, the book addresses the complexity of father-queer son relationships; family dynamics; the impact of neurodiverse mental health issues; the erotic, unsafe, and taboo qualities of desire; encounters with absent, estranged or emotionally distant fathers; and a critical analysis of father and queer son relationships in Chicano/Latino literature and film.
