“The Chicano moratorium was an historic anti-Vietnam War demonstration that many consider the apex of 1960s Chicano social movement. NACCS, a national academic association founded in 1974 by university-based Chicano movement social activists, is also simultaneously recognizing the moratorium at events in Los Angeles and San Francsico..., Dr. Raoul Contreras, Associate professor of Latino Studies at Indiana univ. Northwest (Gary, Indiana), will speak about the historical significance of the Chicano Moratorium and the Chicano anti-Vietnam War movement. A combat-decorated Chicano Vietnam veteran, Dr. Contreras became an activist in the Chicano ant-war movement in the late 1960s. His talk will address similarities between the U.S. War on Vietnam and contemporary U.S. militarism, and the efforts of progressives to construct an ant-imperialist movement in opposition to the ‘War on Terrorism.’
...At its March 2002 national conference (in Chicago, Illinois) NACCS passes a resolution in opposition to the ‘War on Terrorism.’..." (cited from the flier of the Forum)
