The mission of the UCLA César E. Chávez Department of Chicana/o Studies is to train a new generation of scholars to research and analyze the life, history, and culture of Mexican-origin people within the United States, as well as of other Latino/a and indigenous populations in the Americas. Addressing local, national, and transnational contexts, the Chicana/o Studies curriculum at UCLA explores race, class, gender, and sexuality paradigms as they have shaped the history of the field, as well as new directions in the study of Chicana/os and Latina/os, including 1) Border and Transnational Studies; 2) Expressive Arts; 3)History, Language, and Culture of the Americas;
4) Labor, Law, and Policy Studies. Read more> |

Chavez Department Supports Actions in Defense of Public Education at U.C. Whereas Chicana and Chicano Studies at UCLA is a product of struggle for educational access and equity, and whereas we are celebrating the 40th and 15th year anniversaries of important struggles at UCLA for the establishment of a Chicana/o Studies research center and an academic department respectively, and whereas the proposed 32% UC student fee increase would severely curtail and in some cases impede access to higher education for our students, including many of our Chicana/o and Latina/o students, and in particular our AB540 population, the César E. Chávez Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies supports the November 18th and 19th state-wide call to action to defend public education in California. |
