RIOTS

AFTERMATH Nationwide condemnation of the actions of the military riots and civilian authorities. Human Relation committee was formed to discuss issues. " The question goes deeper than just [zoot] suits. It is a racial protest. I have been worried for a long time about the Mexican racial situation. It is a problem with roots going a long way back, and we do not always face these problems as we should –Eleanor Roosevelt Gave the Mexican American community the drive to fight for more civil rights
