Overflowing with powerful testimonies of six female community activists who have lived and worked in the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago, Chicanas of 18th Street reveals the convictions and approaches of those organizing for social reform. In chronicling a pivotal moment in the history of community activism in Chicago, the women discuss how education, immigration, religion, identity, and acculturation affected the Chicano movement. Chicanas of 18th Street underscores the hierarchies of race, gender, and class while stressing the interplay of individual and collective values in the development of community reform. Highlighting the women's motivations, initiatives, and experiences in politics during the 1960s and 1970s, these rich personal accounts reveal the complexity of the Chicano movement, conflicts within the movement, and the importance of teatro and cultural expressions to the movement. Also detailed are vital interactions between members of the Chicano movement with leftist and nationalist community members and the influence of other activist groups such as African Americans and Marxists.
Society of Professors of Education Book Award, 2013. Honorable Mention, Best History/Political Book-English category, Latino Literacy Now's International Latino Book Awards, 2012. "The personal testimonies make for exciting reading. . . . Ramírez and his interviewees present an untold story of Chicana/o student activism in the Midwest that has all but been ignored in New Left historiography and Chicago history."-- Journal of Illinois History "Women's oral history enthusiasts will find this book a treasure trove of ideas and experiences that is brimming with details about the events, organizations, and cultural work of women in the Chicano movement."--Dionne Espinoza, coeditor of Enriqueta Vasquez and the Chicano Movement: Writings from El Grito del Norte " Chicanas of 18th Street provides a fascinating narrative that uses rich personal accounts to detail the history of individual women and the Chicano movement in Chicago during the 1960s and 1970s."-- Oral History Review "A fascinating account of Latina activists during the height of the Chicano movement in Chicago. The personal testimonies allow readers to see the dynamics that transform community members into activists. This engaging study appeals to students and scholars of women's studies, political science, sociology, and Latina studies."--Mary S. Pardo, author of Mexican American Women Activists: Identity and Resistance in Two Los Angeles Communities

I liked the storytelling style. It was refreshing and inspiring to hear women’s experiences in the Movement as if you’re sitting down with them and listening to their stories. You feel the relatable tones, emotions, and outlooks of the storytellers and the people they talk about. I wasn’t ready for the analysis at the end of the book and it took me a while to switch modes for that different type of prose. But overall loved gaining the insight this book carries.
This is a well written, honest and insightful book. It is a collection of stories and an analysis of what it meant to come of age during the sixties revolution for six Chicanas in Chicago. While telling the stories of these Chicanas, I think the book also connects their particular lives and struggles with the universal striving of all women and men to be free and lead meaningful lives in a just society. This is a must read for anyone interested in understanding the collective efforts and, of course, the difficulties of ordinary people to make a better world. As discussed and analyzed in the book, "Understanding the nature of the divisions that arose during the 1960s and 1970s is important for contemporary mobilizations."
Great read especially if you grew up on that cultural rich neighborhood of Chicago. Tales of strong women

Hispanic Gangs in Los Angeles County | 18th Street | Mara Salvatrucha | MS13 | Diesiocho | Eighteen Street
Hispanic Gangs in Los Angeles County
There are about 500 Sureño Hispanic gangs in Los Angeles County representing over 50 percent of the gang membership. All Los Angeles Hispanic gangs along with gangs in other Southern California cities are commonly referred to as South Siders and the 13 refers to this geographic identity. South Siders can be found in Bakersfield (N) to San Diego (S).
One of the oldest Hispanic gangs in Los Angeles is called Dog Town Rifa , located in the William Mead housing projects that were built in 1942. The gang had actually been in that area since 1890 when it was a multi-racial group of Irish immigrants, Mexicans and other ethnic groups that lived in the Chinatown area north of downtown Los Angeles.
Other old Hispanic barrios include Temple Street (1923), White Fence (1925) in Boyle Heights , 38th Street in South LA, Canta Ranas (1920s) in Santa Fe Springs , Canoga Park Alabama (1930s) & San Fers in the Valley, Clanton (early 1920s), Florencia , El Hoyo Maravilla , Artesia (1940s), Hawaiian Gardens (1940s), Dog Patch (1940s), and Big Hazard (1940s).
They are geographically dispersed throughout the county and city and not concentrated in one section of Los Angeles. They are found in significant numbers in the San Fernando Valley , San Gabriel Valley, the Beach communities, Long Beach , Compton and South Los Angeles . Below is a list of cities/places in Los Angeles County where Hispanic gangs are currently active.
