Founded by Mexican American men in 1929, the League of United Latin-American Citizens (LULAC) has usually been judged according to Chicano nationalist standards of the late 1960s and 1970s. Drawing on extensive archival research, including the personal papers of Alonso S. Perales and Adela Sloss-Vento, No Mexicans, Women, or Dogs Allowed presents the history of LULAC in a new light, restoring its early twentieth-century context. Orozco also provides evidence that perceptions of LULAC as a petite bourgeoisie, assimilationist, conservative, anti-Mexican, anti-working class organization belie the realities of the group's early activism. Supplemented by oral history, this sweeping study probes LULAC's predecessors, such as the Order Sons of America, blending historiography and cultural studies. Against a backdrop of the Mexican Revolution, World War I, gender discrimination, and racial segregation, No Mexicans, Women, or Dogs Allowed recasts LULAC at the forefront of civil rights movements in America. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $x History $x History $y 20th century. 610 20 $a League of United Latin American Citizens $x History. 610 20 $a Order of Sons of America $x History. 650 0 $a Civil rights movements $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $x History $z Texas $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Civil rights movements $z Texas $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $z Texas $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Mexican American women $z Texas $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171226045146.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160825043813.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20130503011817.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EB0E5D46B3B611E2BB8BFCD2DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
