United States Latino Issues collection
Collection
Identifier: MS-1124
Collection Organization
The United States Latino Issues collection is an assortment of letters, memos, agendas, minutes, fliers, programs, pamphlets, programs, posters, mailing lists, hand and type written notes, pictures, newspaper articles, committee forms, and petitions. These documents were a means of communication between the LSU students of BGSU and the outside world.
The materials in this collection pertain to many issues of concern to the LSU, including Latino education (bilingual/bicultural programming), Latino scholarship fundraising, Latino festivals, Latino culture and arts, and Latino employment including national migrant issues.
The collection also includes various contacts with other Latino schools, social and employment agencies, etc. from the states of Texas, California, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Ohio.
A good portion of this collection consists of correspondence and news clippings from the Farm Labor Organizing Committee (FLOC), La Raza Unida de Ohio, and the Guadalupe Center of Toledo, Ohio.
A particular strength of the collection are the various Latino university newsletters from Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, New Mexico, New York, Texas, California, and Washington DC, as they share their local news with the Latino students of BGSU.
It should be noted that some of the correspondence and publications are either in Spanish or English, or at times both languages.
