    Description
    A multi-disciplinary exploration of the cultural and social milieu of Chicanos in the United States. "Chicano" is defined as the first generation of Mexican-Americans born to parents from Mexico. Students will trace the development of a definition and rationale for Chicanismo through a critical and comparative examination of relevant literature. Areas that will be examined will include economics, family and religion, social and political behavior, health, education and prejudice, among others. Also included in this examination will be a specific look at the Chicano movement, its goals, methods, and people.
