The group produced lively posters and murals for educational, cultural, and political activities at the height of the Chicano Movement. Its art and activism influenced many artists and historians with images reflecting Latin American and Chicanx history, symbols of protest and union support, and celebrations of cultural touchstones such as lowriders, Cinco de Mayo, Day of the Dead, and other community events. With vivid illustrations and accessible text by scholars in the field contextualizing the Royal Chicano Air Force's legacy within Chicanx history, political activism, and American art, this striking book will help bring this heavily influential group and movement to life. It also accompanies an upcoming exhibition of the same name at the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, California.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTere Romo \u003c\/b\u003eis an independent curator and affiliate faculty in the Chicana\/o Studies Department at the University of California, Davis. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eTatiana Reinoza \u003c\/b\u003eis an assistant professor of art history at the University of Notre Dame. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eJesús Barraza \u003c\/b\u003eis a lecturer of Chicanx Latinx Studies at the University of California, Berkeley, and a member of the Dignidad Rebelde artist collective. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eElla Maria Diaz \u003c\/b\u003eis a professor and chair of the Department of Chicana and Chicano Studies at San José State University. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eLorena Márquez \u003c\/b\u003eis an associate professor of history and interim chair of the Department of Chicana\/o Studies at University of California, Davis.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Scala Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52078293057810,"sku":"9781785516238","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_929421cf-8abf-4445-a78c-6c6dca6bcca6.jpg?v=1772541255","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/rebels-with-la-causa-9781785516238","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
