*A little bit about M.E.Ch.A:*
"Movimiento means that the organization is dedicated to the movement to
gain self-determination for our people.
Estudiantil, identifies the organization as a student group for we are part
of our Raza's future.
At the heart of the name is the use of the identity: Chicano. At first seen
as a negative word, now taken for a badge of honor. In adopting their new
identity, the students committed themselves to return to the barrios,
colonias, or campos and together, struggle against the forces that oppress
our gente.
Lastly, the affirmation that we are Indigenous people to this land by
placing our movement in Aztlan, the homeland of all peoples from Anahuak."

In Solidarity,
SJP UIUC
