I believe that the historical events and social movements that took place in the 1960s/ early 70s throughout California as well as the Crusade for justice, the Pharr Riots in 1971, the Starr County Mellon Strikes and the Discoll strikes, all have in common one thing which is Mexican Americans, Chicanos, Latinos, fighting for equality. The social movement that took place in the 1960s, was a social movement from Mexicans Americans in opposition to unfair segregation, poverty and immoral racism, the fundamental purpose of this movement was to secure better education, school, economics opportunities, equality and justice for Mexican Americans. A very clear example is the Crusade for Justice that started in Denver Colorado during the year of 1965
