Presented in this publication are seven essays and public presentations, prepared for Chicana feminist activities and events during the period 1970 to 1977, titled: "Our Feminist Heritage", "When Women Speak: Our Feminist Legacy", "Chicanas and Power", "Feminism As We See It", "Roles", "Identidad", and "Among the Feminist: Racist and Classist Issues". These discuss important events in Chicana feminist history since the 1800's to the present (both in Mexico and the United States); the cultural patterns and tradition of strong women which prove that Chicanas have a long, beautiful history of Mexicano/Chicano feminism which is not Anglo-inspired, imposed, or oriented; Chicanas' participation in the public life of the State of Texas and the nation; the role of the women in the Chicano Movement Politics, and some background on the development of women in the struggle; the multiplicity of roles enjoyed by Chicanas within their cultural tradition and historical context; the Chicanas' identity--searching for an identity, Hijos de la Chingada, identifying themselves with an objective, factionalism, social consciousness, women in politics, La Malinche, intermarriage and identity, and becoming feminist; and racism, sexism and classism--politics, herstories and images, institution building, classism in the ranks, and sexism vs. racism. Included is a bibliography which cites 123 items pertaining to history, philosophy and literature, politics and feminism, and social conditions. (NQ)
