Note: At a time when mainstream media was characterizing the Chicano civil rights movement as something to look down upon and even un-American, the Chicano newspapers flourished in the barrios of our nation from San Antonio y Houston to Los Angeles, Chicago and other parts of the American Southwest. These question will help add definition to the Chicano movement.
Part 1: Review the list of Chicano newspapers on page 55 (Table 3-3) and compare it to the list on page 51 (Table 3-2) of newspapers not related to Chicano activism. Comment on your findings as you browse through both lists.
Part 2: Review the definition of the term "Chicano" on page 3. Comment on the definition. Also, see if you can determine where the term started and where it was first used. Use your text and other sources for this assignment. Good luck.
