Biographical / Historical
Kaye Briegel, who was a lecturer of history at the California State University Long Beach, primarily assembled this collection of Chicano materials.
Publications in this collection include:
- El Chicano began in 1968 when the University of California received a grant from the Ford Foundation, and the first issue was published later that year. In 1969 funding for the publication was pulled due to a political cartoon, but was picked up as an independent press by its current owners, Gloria and Bill Harrison, along with Marta Macias Brown and Sam McQueen.
- El Malcriado-The Voice of the Farmworker started when Cesar Chavez and Gilbert Padilla wanted to build a movement in 1962. It wasn't until 1964 that the original idea to create the publication became a reality. Bill Esher, a New Yorker who moved to Oakland, helped create and distribute the paper. The publication continued distribution until the early 1970s.
- Regeneracion was a monthly magazine previous known as Carta Editorial. Regeneracion was published in Los Angeles until an undisclosed date and focused on issues of inequality, poverty, and war.
- El Hispanoa legally adjudicated newspaper of general circulation in Sacramento County and throughout Northern California that was published weekly, every Tuesday.
