Popular Expression: Its History and its Use as a Tool for
Liberation
Leader: Luis Moreno, CSU-Northridge
Participants: Luis Moreno, José Moreno, Francisco Romero, CSU-Northridge
On September 14, 2002, a tremendously important gathering, the
“Conference On Raza Press, Media, And Popular Expression: Its
History And Its Use As A Tool For Liberation,” took place in
Oxnard, California. Organized by the Raza Press Association,
dozens of journalist, writers, and activist gathered to discuss
how Raza can must use the media to raise the social
consciousness of our people as a means of contributing to the
movement to end the oppression of, not only Chicano Mexicanos,
but all people, no matter what their race, sex, or class.
Participants included distinguish scholars and activists such as
Rudy Acuna, Antonia Darder, Elizabeth “Betita” Martinez, Jose
Montoya, Juan Gomez Quinonez, and many more. The purpose of the
conference was to: 1) To Establish and Promote and Accountable
and Collective Raza Alternative Media Network; (2) To Promote
and Expand the Raza Media News Wire Service; and (3) To
Establish and Archive/ Collection of Raza Alternative Media.
The panel on “The Raza Press, Media, And Popular Expression: Its
History And Its Use As A Tool For Liberation,”will continue the
dialogue and effort to concretely build a Raza press/media that
struggle for and defend the interests of the
Mexicano-Raza-Latino masses, as set in motion by the September
14th Conference. The panel will address the question of women,
barrio youth, academics, and organizations, from the perspective
of media expression (murals, newspapers, internet, poetry, art,
theater, and etc.). Those attendances will leave the workshop
with knowledge of what can be done to liberate La Raza through
various means of media expression.
