Mexican-American Groups in California

Demonstrate critical thinking skills by identifying and discussing systems and institutions of oppression and their impact on targeted groups based on race, class, gender/sexuality and/or ethnicity during the covered time period in California (Pre European Contact to the 1960s-1970s). How did these various groups resist, challenge and overcome these varied forms of oppression? Can you compare and contrast and/or discuss the intersections of varied historical experiences? How does this approach to history inform your understanding and analysis of current social justice issues today?
