Memorias en Movimiento: The Forgotten Revolutionaries of the 1990s San Diego Chicana/o Student Movement, will center on collective memory. Focusing on San Diego, this project will host an intergenerational symposium to bring together Chicano/a students from the 1990s who organized around issues of the time: state legislation that impacted communities of color, the struggle for representation in the educational system, and a fight to reveal the legacies of colonialism in the region. Alongside the panel of speakers will be an exhibit of photos and other memorabilia of this generation’s movement work and contributions. Programming will run October through December 2023.
