My (condensed) opinion on the chicano movement is that while it set a lot of foundations for latino political action in the us chicanismo is based on so much revision that the ideology still causes problems today and inhibits political education on top of its legacy of machismo/pretendianism/anti-indigeneity/lack of criticism and understanding of the us empire from the majority of members. That being said these 3 photos of the brown berets go crazy

#chicanismo #to be fair the brown berets were mildly more anti imperialist although its hard to tell if they were actually or just #hardcore che guevara fans lmao #either way chicanismo tends to cancel out anti-imperialism lol #they modeled after the black panthers but definitely didn't achieve the same amount of effectiveness #what happens when you position your group as “paramilitary” but don't really deliver #and also when the main ideology is 70% bullshit 💀#not denying that they did have achievements but obviously those 2 things cause issues #ntm the 1947592919283 other issues #ig this counts as historyposting idk #I want to make it clear that if someone unironically said they want to revive any of this I would 😬 so fast
