This article needs to be expanded. For one there's many references that can be added. For books there is:


United We Win: The Rise and Fall of LA Raza Unida Party by Ignacio M. Garcia

La Raza Unida Party: A Chicano Challenge to the U.S. Two-Party Dictatorship by Armando Navarro

Chicano politics: La Raza Unida by Richard Santillan

El Partido de la Raza Unida in Crystal City: A peaceful revolution by Armando Navarro

The history of La Raza Unida is very important to understanding the Chicano Movement. There needs to be more in this, as many people come to wikipedia for first research—Preceding unsigned comment added by Jjchavez78 (talk • contribs)

Those books should only be listed as references if they are used to provide information for the article.--Rockero 04:43, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mestizo

According to Gutierrez in the La Politiquera link on Gutierrez's wikipedia page, "You get a D- in Spanish! La Raza is the Mestizo people. The civilization that was created between Spaniards and other Europeans and Indian women and some Africans." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.102.210.163 (talk) 02:36, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
