La Raza Unida (1 jan 1970 ano – 31 dez 1978 ano)

Descrição:

The Raza Unida Party was established on January 17, 1970, at a meeting of 300 Mexican Americans at Campestre Hall in Crystal City, Texas. After RUP filed for party status in Zavala, La Salle, and Dimmit counties in January 1970, it began its eight-year quest to bring greater economic, social, and political self-determination to Mexican Americans in the state, especially in South Texas, where they held little or no power in many local or county jurisdictions although they were often in the majority. Though the party did not grow to be a massive national party, the party still did gain some traction and spread to different states, but stayed mostly isolated to the southwest.
