    Cleto Reyes Research Paper

    Cleto Reyes boxing gloves are made in Mexico by the Industrial Reyes S.A. de C.V. and were founded by Cleto Reyes himself. Cleto Reyes gloves were used for the first time in a championship fight between the second Mexican champion, Juan Zurita, and Ike Williams in 1945. In 1965 these boxing gloves began to be distributed to the major markets in the United States as well as some other countries around the world. In 1970 Cleto’s son, Alberto Reyes, joined the operation and then in 1975 decided to register the trademark Cleto Reyes. Cleto Reyes has been fortunate enough to win quite a few prestigious recognitions. For example, in 1994, Cleto Reyes won Mexico’s National Exports Award. Today, Cleto Reyes’ products are distributed on five continents around the world. For more information about…

    Pedro Vial Research Paper

    Pedro Vial is one of the earliest European explorers and trailblazers on the Southern Plains (Wishart 1). Domingo Cabello y Robles, who is the governor of Texas, sent Pedro Vial to visit the tribes along the Red River in 1784 (Tyson 2). It means something when the governor of a state sends you to do a task for him. This shows that Pedro is a well- known figure. This voyage requested from the governor was to find the best course to travel between the “Spanish provincial capitals of San Antonio, Texas, and Santa Fe, New Mexico” (Wishart 1). By the end of the year1789, Pedro Vial traversed miles upon miles of land, he explored the present day states of Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Louisiana (Tyson 2). The time that Vial dedicated to his expeditions…

    Richard Ramirez Research Paper

    Richard Ramirez was a California-based serial killer who operated from 1984 to 1985. He was born in El Paso, Texas, but eventually moved out to California. He was known as the “Night Stalker” because he would break into homes at night, raping and killing his victims. Ramirez got his start early, as he (unsurprisingly) had a rough childhood. His father was known to abuse him, and he spent some time in juvenile detention for petty crimes. He also sustained two major head injuries as a child, having a dresser fall on him and being knocked out by a swing at a park. However, he was heavily influenced by his cousin Mike, who was a Green Beret who had returned from the war in Vietnam. Mike told Richard graphic stories about the women he raped, tortured, and…

    Siqueiros

    David Alfaro Siqueiros is best remembered as one of Los Tres Grandes, along with Diego Rivera and Jose Clemente Orozco. They pioneered the use of murals to tell epic stories of poverty, rebellion, politics and the tortured history of their native Mexico. Influenced by Marxism in his treatment of the class struggle, Siqueiros believed public murals were a powerful way for the masses to have access to his art work and political messages. The Tres Grandes, among many other artists, were part of the revolutionary change in Mexico.…

    Chicano Arts Movement

    JUST ANOTHER POSTER? - Chicano Graphic Arts in California, is the first exhibition and book that explores the poster art created by dozens of Chicano artists in California from the late 1960s to the present. I am honored to be among the artists included in this historic collection. Graphic art has played a key role in El Movimiento(the Chicano civil rights movement), and the poster has been used to educate, agitate, and organize Americans of Mexican descent. One could even say that political awareness and social activism grew out of the Chicano arts movement. Chicano art has had many influences. Certainly Mexican artists like José Guadalupe Posada, Frida Kahlo, and David Siqueiros have had their effect, but so have American comic books, Cuban political posters, and spray-painted barrio calligraphy.
