Tori Vasquez (TV): The experiences of the Latinas featured in the LHP resonated with us, the student researchers. Their lives reassured us that their experiences and ours should be valued, and more importantly, that these stories matter and belong. We drew strength from the ability to recognize ourselves in the project’s content and relate to it. LHP archival materials are drawn from the “Rostros y Almas/Faces and Souls” exhibit, curated for the annual Brown Symposium. The 1992 Symposium, “Discoveries of the Americas”, explored intersecting meanings of “America” and lasting impacts of colonization and marginalization on peoples of the Americas. Since 1992, the exhibit has been on display, tucked away on the second story of a campus building. We, the students, deeply internalized the limited exposure and hidden space allotted to vitally important alternative histories on campus. The stories deserved more exposure than in a dimly lit hallway. The many boxes of materials that accompanied the exhibit have been stored since 1992. The LHP team learned of their existence in 2014 and began the process of not only physically unpacking this history, but bringing the materials back to life. We digitized the physical exhibit and processed roughly 100 of the primary source materials, that pertained to the planning and execution of it and the lives of the influential Latinas, then uploaded the collection to the Latina History Project website. We incorporated this knowledge into our lives and campus environment to demonstrate the value of exposing alternative histories not only as remnants of the past, but as catalysts for change in the present. The process of building the online exhibit and learning about Latina history, and its intersection with SU’s own institutional history, taught us about issues relating to space, inclusion and the value in knowing one’s history. In the beginning, these materials were like buried seeds. In order to combat historical silences around Latina experiences, we worked to cultivate and make visible these previously silenced stories and experiences. Unpacking the exhibit materials was an awakening: my history became a part of my education. The women in the exhibit tienen ganas y sueños, have wants and dreams with strong ties to the past and desires for a better future. They shifted my understanding of what is deemed “relevant” history. Some Chicana movimiento participants stated that it was healing for them to share their experiences of fighting for gender and racial equality, yet I don’t think they realized what it meant to me to hear their stories. Generations that preceded student activists like myself went through similar struggles to create change. This knowledge allowed me to heal and in this process I finally realized I belong. http://www.anthropology­news.org/index.php/2016/09/15/unboxing­the­buried­seeds­of­my­belonging/ 2/4 �2/16/2017 Unboxing the Buried Seeds of My Belonging | Anthropology­News Feeling silenced and a hunger for belonging are not experiences exclusive to Chicanas and Latinas. Therefore, we interviewed a group of non­Latina/o students, alumni, staff and faculty whose experiences illuminated intersections of marginalization. While spotlighting Latina history is important, so too is the connection between shared experiences. Indeed, belonging and inclusion were themes in several of these oral histories that connect people across differences. SLIDESHOW 5 PHOTOS  Martha P. Cotera. Photo courtesy Latina History Project Papers, Special Collections, Southwestern University The Latina History Project shifted the way I see others and myself. Chicana activists worked to increase representation of underrepresented groups in politics, law and the arts, helped to increase gender and racial equality in bilingual and higher education, and paved the way for future generations to succeed in arenas previously unavailable to them. They impacted society and that is what I want in my education. That is what it means to me to have relevance and a presence in history. By making visible this history, the LHP invokes a sense of continuity and a historical legacy, one that can instill a sense of home in future SU students. BS: Through the LHP, Tori and the other students have provided me with a deepened understanding of the politics of representation. They showed me that silencing functions to exclude some experiences and privilege others and how this becomes internalized as a result. One of the most palpable moments in my teaching career came when Tori explained to me that it is one thing to be welcomed somewhere, and a whole other to belong.   Tori Vasquez is an alumus of the Southwestern University Latin American/Border Studies Program, currently working for Teach for America.

Title A name given to the resource Dejar Mi Idioma Jamás (Never Abandon My Language) Description An account of the resource To the right, a PDF file of Aurora E. Orozco’s original handwritten document is available for free download. Below this item’s description, you will find a direct transcript of the text. For Aurora E. Orozco, the Spanish language seeps into every artery of the Latina/o experience. In "Dejar Mi Idioma Jamás," the first of her five essays, Orozco explores the potential impacts of the recent laws proposed in the Senate. These laws would outlaw the use of languages other than English by American citizens. For Latina/o Americans, Spanish is a fundamental part of their identity. Orozco discusses this through personal interactions with those that have attempted to take her lingual identity by force. She describes the heritage that it represents for her, a lineage that connects her to both her ancestors and her descendants. It is a spiritual connection that provides a sense of continuity between generations. She presents the religious nature of the Spanish language, as a sanctuary in which Latino/as may escape the oppression inflicted on them by the English language and those that would use it against them. The removal of which would leave them vulnerable to their oppressors. She then looks to recent United States’ legal history, Thomas Jefferson, and others throughout the country’s existence that have given support to Latina/os. Through this history, she sees the space that it has provided and will continue to provide for the safety of the Latina/o identity in the United States. Dejar mi idioma jamás Parece que varios Senadores Anglos tienen en proyecto el pasar una ley para que la idioma Inglés sea la única que se hable en E. Unidos. Está encabezado por el Senador Steve Symns Republicano de Idaho. Si esto sucediera será muy triste para los hispanos, es como si nos cortaron el brazo derecho, sentiríamos incompletos. Es nuestro idioma la que hablaron nuestros antepasados y no la dejaron, es nuestra herencia está bien arraigada en nuestro corazón. La oímos en la casa, Iglesia, escuela, tele, y fiestas. Que piensan hacer con nuestra gente que no habla inglés. No me refiero a los ilegales, sino ha cientos de personas ancianos y jóvenes que nunca fueron a la escuela. No porque no hayan querido ir, sino porque sí les negó la educación. Otros porque fueron ignorados y discriminados por las maestros Anglos. Yo fui una de esas cuando iba ha la escuela. Tenía una maestra, la Sra. White, casi todas las tardes me dejaba en el cuarto después de clase. Me pegaba en mis manos con una tripa de hule colorada hasta que quería verter la sangre, pero nunca me pudo quitar de que hablara mi idioma español. Aprendí muy bien el inglés, pero mi idioma es algo muy mío, herencia que me dejaron mis padres, yo se los dejo ha mis hijos y nietos. II Que piensan hacer con todas las personas que pasan sus días oyendo el radio y viendo sus novelas en español. Es lo que le da sabor ha su vida, especialmente en los Pueblos chicos en donde son tan discriminados por allí viven más Anglos y ellos son los que mondan. Ojalá y que estos Senadores no se salgan con la suya, sería muy terrible para nuestra gente. Dicen que si no hablan Inglés, que se vayan para México, pero porque si aquí nacieron, sus antepasados eran de aquí de esta tierra. Thomas Jefferson, el autor de la Constitución no vio ningún peligro en la idioma español para que se hiciera una enmienda en la Constitución en el futuro. Él hablaba seis idiomas y una de ellas era español. Existe el documento que es el “Tratado de Guadalupe Hidalgo Feb. 2, 1848.” En este documento firmado por E. Unidos y México garantiza las propiedades, derechos, y la cultura de la población nativa. Ahora tenemos muchos de nuestras hispanas que terminan el Highschool, colegios Universidades y tenemos Senador Representante; abogados, doctores, ingenieros, profesores, maestros, químicos y mujeres y hombres en posiciones muy importante, Así estos seis Senadores nos quieren quitar nuestra idioma solo que hagan lo que hicieron los Alemanes con la Judios en la Segundo Guerra mundial juntarnos y matarnos para destruir nuestra cultura y idioma.

Featured persons: Felipe Martinez, Hermelinda Rodriguez, Richard Moya, Alfonso Ramos, Gabriel Gutierrez, Jr., Margarita Simon (Muñoz), Gustavo L. Garcia, George I. Sanchez, Paul Tovar, Marcelo Tafoya, Raul Guerrero, and Norma Louisa Govea Guerra. The woman featured here, Margarita Simon, is also part of the “Rostros y Almas/Face and Souls” exhibit which is on permanent display here at Southwestern University. Being that it was the Austin Chicano Cultural Center’s initial project (according to a foreword in the calendar), the calendar served many purposes. Not only was it used to showcase individuals who had contributed to the development of the Mexican-American community, but also, according to the calendar’s foreword, the calendar invited everyone “to participate in [the Center’s] activities and help in designing... programs which best meet the needs of the Austin Chicano Community.” https://latinahistoryproject.southwestern.edu/files/original/623ae1b5d01bfc3bc5ffc30b5d4195dd.pdf 2a0f5bc5018371de745f29d6053023b5 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource A Newspaper Clipping: "Keeper of Culture Wins Honor" Description An account of the resource “Keeper of culture wins honor” is a newspaper article printed by the Austin American-Statesman on September 15, 1983. September 15th begins the month long recognition of Hispanic Heritage Month, with the following day being “Diez y Sies”, Mexican Independence Day. The article features Margarita Munoz Simon because of her dedication to the preservation of Mexican culture. The newspaper clipping describes how her efforts were to be honored by the Hispanic community at the 1983 annual Diez y Seis celebration that takes place in Austin. Most of the work that Simon partook in was related to the radio. However she has always been very involved in community unification especially in regards to serving the Latin American people in terms of cultural or political activity. The article highlights her passion towards the dignity and knowledge that comes from one’s home and culture. It is most likely that for these reasons she was selected by Bryant and Visser to be a part of their “Rostros y Almas/ Faces and Souls” exhibit.
