The relationships between distinct Chicanx and Latinx communities and identities, historical legacies, contemporary issues, and their impact, and socio-political and economic institutions and their effects on the Chicanx and Latinx communities are analyzed. The values, leadership, activism, and contributions of Chicanx and Latinx peoples in the United States are also examined. 54 hours lecture. AA/ AS GE: IV, VI. Transfer: CSU, UC; CSUGE: D,F; IGETC: 4.
