(2001) - Message to Aztlán - Rodolfo Gonzales

Gonzales was a boxer, politician, activist, and public speaker. Message to Aztlán is a compilation of Gonzales' work over the span of 20+ years. It is divided by order of speeches, plays, poetry, and other messages. It particularly rose to fame during the 1960s Chicano Movement, where he hoped to inspire the new generation to persist in improving their country and the world in general. Major themes in his work include nationalism, economic and political independence, and overall Chicano unity.  

I personally cannot change my views from yesterday for promises of tomorrow, I cannot and will not change philosophy for fear of disagreement, discomfort, prison, or death.
