00:00:01.040 - 00:00:23.030

this Labor Day March who organized it and why? Well, the chicano moratorium defense Fund is a group of people from different organizations who got together to support uh, and also fight for the right to have a a peaceful demonstration uh, wherever La raza is at uh,

00:00:23.040 - 00:00:40.100

were protesting has not come up. The reason for this March is that we want to show that we were there peacefully in Los Angeles, which I was one of the persons there and the intervention of the police department was an unjust. Uh, they started tear gassing

00:00:40.110 - 00:00:59.400

the people who were there at the rally, they started abusing the people etcetera etcetera. Calling dirty Mexican speaks. Go back to Mexico assaulting youngsters, assaulting women such as a lady such as holding her child here again, we're gonna have to millions. We don't want violence etcetera,

00:00:59.400 - 00:01:22.050

etcetera. Uh, this march again I say it's too drama. Try demetrius dramatize the right to peacefully demonstrate. Ah, there's many angry people here. How many people do you expect to turn off home later? Least 1000. What what do you personally feel will be accomplished by this?

00:01:22.400 - 00:01:40.840

Mostly unity for the people to get together and to be aware of what's happening to the chicano. Be aware of, of the Like the Motor 20 incident in Los Angeles, Father. You're an anglo. And how do we get this across to two Anglos that may be

00:01:40.840 - 00:01:56.480

watching television. What would you say to them? I think what we're looking for that we marched with them on any other activities to try to help them get some of those rights and try to get the respect from the established communities. What about East Palo East

00:01:56.480 - 00:02:14.930

Palo Alto, East san Jose. Do you feel that you are denied rights in your hometown? Definitely, definitely. We had about a month ago. As you may know, we had Garcia who was assassinated by the Police department san Jose Police department. Also, we had other such as

00:02:14.930 - 00:02:34.830

manual via uh myself who was arrested for charges uh that I still believe in that many other people who've seen the situation believe I was not guilty. The jurisdictional system must change in san Jose for the spanish speaking people. La raza chicano, mexican american uh, mexicanos.

00:02:34.830 - 00:02:54.390

However, we identify ourselves, the housing is poor. Uh, We have uh absentee landlords, uh, facilities are poor. Uh for example, right around the corner here we have the East side recreation center uh which we had to fight to keep our own people, people of our own

00:02:54.400 - 00:03:15.310

level uh, that could relate with the teenagers that could relate with the people. Uh, The east side has a double of the police department. Uh, the housing, yes, in the precincts, it's a, it's a larger, I think it's 32 precincts and uh there's uh enough harassment,

00:03:15.320 - 00:03:26.480

which is hard to prove because every time we come up with the cameras or etcetera etcetera such as we did last night we were going by and we were accused of certain things that we did not do. And uh these are the type of the type

00:03:26.480 - 00:03:47.850

of things that are happening. Uh housing, employment, uh, which we call the economic discrimination of the spanish speaking or mexican american or chicano. Uh, uh, there's many problems in the east side and the west side Dalmas in that barrio. Also we have problems by the police

00:03:47.850 - 00:04:16.980

department and employment etcetera etcetera. Okay, How are you darling? Yeah. Mm hmm. Together if anything does happen, which we're hoping it doesn't. We're asking that you got the feeling goes here. Uh, the Americanos or whatever. They're going to be the medics here. And uh, the ambulance

00:04:16.980 - 00:04:35.200

will be that blue car which will be in the rear. We will be following the red car. We will be following the red flag. Whatever happens, we must walk proud. We must stand up. We must here. We must let the people know many of you who

00:04:35.200 - 00:06:04.940

were in Los Angeles realized what the hell happened there with the police intervention. We must stand proud. We must speak Except there like anybody else. We are part of the cardinals. There's also signs around. Mm hmm. Okay. Howard? And I'll teach you. Yeah.

00:06:34.140 - 00:06:40.290

Okay. More power to the people. You've got enough firepower
