Chicana Critical Issues “are the daughters of Chicano working class families, who were able to receive a university education... [Their] history is the history of working people - their struggles, commitments, and strengths.. [They] document, analyze and interpret the Chicana/Mexicana experience in the United States. [They] are particularly concerned with the conditions women face at work, in and out of the home. [They] continue our mother's struggle for social and economic justice... [Their] research strives to bridge the gap between intellectual work and active commitment to our communities... [They] welcome Chicanas who share these problems and goals and invite them to join our movement.”
