Ontiveros. 264 1 $a New York : $b New York University Press, $c [2014] 300 $a viii, 233 pages : $b illustrations ; $c 24 cm. 520 $a "Reexamining the Chicano civil rights movement of the 1960s and 1970s, In the Spirit of a New People brings to light new insights about social activism in the twentieth-century and new lessons for progressive politics in the twenty-first. Randy J. Ontiveros explores the ways in which Chicano/a artists and activists used fiction, poetry, visual arts, theater, and other expressive forms to forge a common purpose and to challenge inequality in America. Focusing on cultural politics, Ontiveros reveals neglected stories about the Chicano movement and its impact: how writers used the street press to push back against the network news; how visual artists such as Santa Barraza used painting, installations, and mixed media to challenge racism in mainstream environmentalism; how El Teatro Campesino's innovative "actos," or short skits, sought to embody new, more inclusive forms of citizenship; and how Sandra Cisneros and other Chicana novelists broadened the narrative of the Chicano movement. In the Spirit of a New People articulates a fresh understanding of how the Chicano movement contributed to the social and political currents of postwar America, and how the movement remains meaningful today. Randy J. Ontiveros is Associate Professor of English and an affiliate in U.S. Latina/o Studies and Women's Studies at the University of Maryland, College Park"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Introduction : The art and history of the Chicano Movement -- Antennas and mimeograph machines : Postwar mass media and the Chicano/a Street Press -- Green Aztlon : environmentalism and the Chicano/a visual arts -- Immigrant Actos : citizenship and performance in El Teatro Campesino -- Sandra Cisneros's Caramelo and the transformation of the Chicano movement 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Chicano movement. 651 0 $a United States $x Social conditions $y 1960-1980. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $x Politics and government. 650 0 $a Mexican American art. 650 0 $a Social movements in art. 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Anthropology / Cultural. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SOCIAL SCIENCE / Discrimination & Race Relations. $2 bisacsh 648 7 $a 1960 - 1980 $2 fast 650 7 $a Art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815177 650 7 $a Chicano movement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01741555 650 7 $a Mexican American art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01018930 650 7 $a Mexican Americans $x Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01019137 650 7 $a Mexican Americans $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01019150 650 7 $a Social history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122498 650 7 $a Social movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122657 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217023242.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826083054.0 952 $l OIAX792 $d 20140917012528.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=569D9D048E3311E3B5D817AEDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
