To celebrate Cinco de Mayo, the Chicano Studies Department, along with La Raza Student Cultural Center, hosted a series of events Tuesday to celebrate the holiday. Cinco de Mayo which means the fifth of May in Spanish commemorates a Mexican victory in 1862 over the French army. The Chicano movement in the 1960s adopted the holiday as a symbol of overcoming oppression. More than 20 people gathered in Coffman Union to listen to keynote speaker Raymond Paredes, chairman of the Center for Chicano Studies at University of California-Los Angeles, retrace the rocky road Chicano studies programs have traversed and the problems still confronting them. Paredes, a professor of English and American Studies at UCLA, gave the keynote address, titled "Chicano Studies at the Cross Roads: Past, Present and Future," as part of La Raza's final day in a five-day series of Cinco de Mayo events. Paredes said in the late 1960s and early '70s most of the universities that set up Chicano studies programs did so in response to political pressure and without an appropriate academic structure in place.

Extractions: Author: Jessica Shaw Cinco de Mayo, May 5th, is a national holiday for Mexicosecond only to September 16, Independence Day. It was on this day, in 1862, that a small group of poorly trained Mexican peasants, under the command of General Ignacio Zaragoza, bravely and fiercely fought for their freedom against a regiment of 6,000 French soldiers under the command of Napoleon III. Historical Background "After Mexico gained it's independence from Spain in 1821, it faced internal power struggles that left it in a volatile state of rebellion and instability for years." (Internet: Pasmanick, 1992) In 1846, the Mexican government, under the dictator Santa Anna, went to war with the United States. As an outcome of that war, Mexico lost a large amount of landthe land we now know as Texas. In 1854, Juan Alvarez and his troops led a successful revolt to drive Santa Anna out of power. One of Alvarez's strongest supporters was a man by the name of Benito Juarez, a Zapotec Indian leader. In 1855, Juarez became the minister of Justice under the new regime and issued two new controversial laws. One denied the right of the church and military courts to try civilian cases and the other made the sale and distribution of church lands legal. Many people disagreed with these laws and for three years a civil war raged between the two sides.
