format this article to print CIVIL-RIGHTS MOVEMENT . Civil-rights campaigns in Texas are generally associated with the state's two most prominent ethnic minorities: African Americans and Mexican Americans. qqv Mexican Americans have made efforts to bring about improved political circumstances since the Anglo-American domination of Texas began in 1836. African Texans have fought for civil rights since their emancipation from slavery qv in 1865. Organized campaigns, however, were not launched until the early twentieth century. Issues of immediate concern to Mexican Americans after the Texas Revolution qv centered around racist actions. In the 1850s, Tejanos faced expulsion from their Central Texas homes on the accusation that they helped slaves escape to Mexico. Others became victims of Anglo wrath around the Goliad area during the Cart War qv of 1857, as they did in South Texas in 1859 after Juan N. Cortina's qv capture of Brownsville. Following the Civil War, both the newly freed slaves and Tejanos faced further atrocities. In the 1880s, white men in East Texas used violence as a method of political control, and lynching qv became the common form of retaliation for alleged rapes of white women or for other insults or injuries perpetrated upon white society. Mexican Americans of South Texas experienced similar forms of brutality. The Ku Klux Klan

Raymond Fogelman Library New School University North American Congress on Latin America (NACLA) Archive of Latin Americana Sponsored and underwritten by the New School University C omposed of ephemera and serials relating to socioeconomic and political conditions in Latin America from the 1960s through the 1980s, this outstanding microfilm collection from Scholarly Resources is the result of the archival efforts of the North American Congress on Latin America. The microfilm contains a wide range of documentation, with its principal strength in primary sources such as serials, reports, fliers, pamphlets, posters, manuscripts, and correspondence. This material often appeared in limited quantity or restricted circulation, but the opposite also occurred, as broadly accessible, cheaply printed items were judged unfit for acquisition by libraries. The publications generally provide the ideological perspective of left wing, progressive, and human rights issues, but documentation of the political right, the military governments and the church is included. Secondary sources consist mainly of research institutes' working papers and other similar types of scholarship. These sources offer a history of the activities of various groups, the responses of the government or other authoritative bodies, and the engagement of organizations outside of the country. They offer a unique grass-roots perspective on the evolution of the politics of the period and show the impact that human rights organizations, solidarity groups, guerrillas, labor unions, and womento name a fewhad on the state and political elites.

HOME PAGE Cold War Civil Rights: Race and the Image of American Democracy Mary L. Dudziak Shopping Cart Reviews Table of Contents In 1958, an African-American handyman named Jimmy Wilson was sentenced to die in Alabama for stealing two dollars. Shocking as this sentence was, it was overturned only after intense international attention and the interference of an embarrassed John Foster Dulles. Soon after the United States' segregated military defeated a racist regime in World War II, American racism was a major concern of U.S. allies, a chief Soviet propaganda theme, and an obstacle to American Cold War goals throughout Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Each lynching harmed foreign relations, and "the Negro problem" became a central issue in every administration from Truman to Johnson. In what may be the best analysis of how international relations affected any domestic issue, Mary Dudziak interprets postwar civil rights as a Cold War feature. She argues that the Cold War helped facilitate key social reforms, including desegregation. Civil rights activists gained tremendous advantage as the government sought to polish its international image. But improving the nation's reputation did not always require real change. This focus on image rather than substancecombined with constraints on McCarthy-era political activism and the triumph of law-and-order rhetoriclimited the nature and extent of progress.

HOME PAGE Labor Rights Are Civil Rights: Mexican American Workers in Twentieth-Century America Zaragosa Vargas Shopping Cart Endorsements In 1937, Mexican workers were among the strikers and supporters beaten, arrested, and murdered by Chicago policemen in the now infamous Republic Steel Mill Strike. Using this event as a springboard, Zaragosa Vargas embarks on the first full-scale history of the Mexican-American labor movement in twentieth-century America. Absorbing and meticulously researched, Labor Rights Are Civil Rights paints a multifaceted portrait of the complexities and contours of the Mexican American struggle for equality from the 1930s to the postwar era. Drawing on extensive archival research, Vargas focuses on the large Mexican American communities in Texas, Colorado, and California. As he explains, the Great Depression heightened the struggles of Spanish speaking blue-collar workers, and employers began to define citizenship to exclude Mexicans from political rights and erect barriers to resistance. Mexican Americans faced hostility and repatriation. The mounting strife resulted in strikes by Mexican fruit and vegetable farmers. This collective action, combined with involvement in the Communist party, led Mexican workers to unionize. Vargas carefully illustrates how union mobilization in agriculture, tobacco, garment, and other industries became an important vehicle for achieving Mexican American labor and civil rights.

A survey by BNA Inc., a Washington D.C. business news publisher, in 2000, revealed that less than one-quarter of businesses give their workers a day off with pay. Worse, the number of firms that gave their employees a paid holiday plunged from the year before. The number of companies that acknowledge King’s birthday pales in comparison to the next least celebrated holiday, Presidents Day. Fifty percent of companies give their workers that day off.

Religious Human Rights in Latin America by Paul E. Sigmund Religious human rights, in the sense of freedom to exercise and practice one's religion, are almost universally guaranteed in the laws and constitutions of Latin America today, although they are not universally observed in practice. However, it has taken Latin America much longer than other parts of the West and I count Latin America as part of the West to accept religious rights in theory and in practice, and the habit of respect for those rights, along with other human rights, is only gradually being developed. For most of the history of Latin America, religious rights were regularly violated, and while the prospects for religious freedom are better now than they have ever been, tensions and conflict in the area of religion remain. The late arrival of religious freedom in Latin America is related to its colonial heritage and to its post-colonial history. Before analyzing and evaluating the present state of religious rights, I would like to review that history, since it continues to influence the contemporary situation. Even before the arrival of the Spaniards, the great pre-Columbian empires, centered in Peru and Mexico, used religion to support their authority and power. It was relatively easy, therefore, for the European conquerors to replace native religious structures with those of a Catholicism that was closely linked to the Spanish throne. Religious uniformity was central to the post-Reconquista Spanish monarchy, and the papacy, threatened by the spread of Protestantism, was willing to cede vast authority to the Spanish rulers in their colonies. The missionaries accompanied the conquistadores who saw their role as converting the heathen, by force if necessary. "The cross and the sword" were thus closely linked in the Spanish empire. The monarch had extracted from the papacy the right of patronage

This article is compliments of, and with permissions from the San Jose Mercury News Posted on Thu, Jan. 30, 2003 LOSS OF RIGHTS By Ken McLaughlin Mercury News The story of Starr Pait Gurcke sounds like the plot of some conspiracy-laden wartime TV movie. Born in 1911 into a pioneer San Jose family of British heritage, she graduated from San Jose State and received a master's in Germanic languages from Stanford before falling in love with Werner Gurcke while on a fellowship in Germany. Her story is part of an exhibit now in the main Santa Cruz library detailing the round-up of Germans, Italians and Japanese in the United States and Latin America, some of whom were exchanged for American prisoners in Europe and Asia. The exhibit, titled ``Enemy Alien Files: Hidden Stories of World War II,'' is the first in which groups of Japanese, German and Italian heritage have collaborated to show how the civil rights of more than 31,000 ``enemy aliens'' were violated during the war, said Grace Shimizu, the project's director. ``This is a ground-breaking and unique multicultural collaboration,'' Shimizu said.
