Abstract:
|
Join CU alum and journalist Juan Espinosa (BA Journalism ‘74) for an audio-visual presentation of his photojournalism work documenting El Movimiento at CU Boulder, in Colorado, and across the West in the early 1970s. As an undergraduate at CU, Espinosa was the founder of El Diario de la Gente, UMAS’s student newspaper, and also served as one of its photographers and reporters. He was also the first student co-director of CU’s UMAS-Equal Opportunity Program (UMAS-EOP). Espinosa’s photographs document, among many other topics, conflicts within the UMAS-EOP program, the March 1973 police attack on the Crusade for Justice headquarters in Denver, La Raza Unida’s National Convention, the Constitutional Convention of the United Farm Workers Union, the May 1974 student occupation of CU’s Temporary Building 1, and the aftermath of the deaths of Los Seis de Boulder.
