Chicano activists speak
about politics and culture
Chicano activists, Victor and Maria Valle, will host two multi-media
presentations in the EMU this week.
Today at 7:30 p.m. Valle will narrate a slide show, ‘ International
Youth Festival—Impressions of Cuba, 1978.'’ It is the first time this
annual socialist youth conference has been held in the Western Hemis
phere.
The politics of the Somoza regime in Nicaragua will also be discus
sed, says Valle.
Wednesday's program, "An Evening of Chicano Poetry, Theater
and Art," employs videotape and Valle s poetry to explore life in Los
Angeles’ Chicano communities.
Included is “A Choice of Colors," an examination of Chicano youth
gangs and the ghettos that spawn them.
The presentation begins at 7:30 p.m.
Valle, whose work has been published in Mexico, Spain, and the
U S., was a winner of the 1977 poetry contest at the University of
California, where he taught folklore and mythology. He currently edits
"Somos”, a magazine promoting Chicano community involvement.
Room numbers wll be announced for the events, which are spon
sored by the Chicano Affairs Center, MEChA, Mayday Cultural Commit
tee, University of Oregon YWCA, and the Eugene Committee for a Free
Chile.
