    Women's Role In The Cristero Rebellion

    Throughout the Cristero rebellion, women played a major role in supporting the movement. As Meyer mentions, women encouraged men to fight in this war in order to defend their right to worship and profess their faith. In fact, women organized different pro-religion groups to support Cristeros. For example, Barbara Miller talks about “The Union de Damas Catolicas de Mexico” who were a religious group who was organized way before the Cristeros Rebllion began, but played a key role during the rebellion. This group was successful that in “1922 they held the first national congress”. There were two types of women that contributed to the war, Las señoras and Las religiosas,. Las señoras, were upper and middle class women, which supported the Cristeros…

    Cinco de Mayo

    Cinco de Mayo is a widely celebrated holiday that some don’t understand. This holiday is translated as “the Fifth of May”, which is celebrated for the Battle of Puebla. This battle, against the French, took place on May 5, 1862. The French sent a huge (undefeated) army of 8,000 to invade Mexico because they hadn’t paid back their war debts. The French army had been well trained and better equipped than the Mexicans. As the French came to Puebla, the 4,000 Mexicans refused to back down which led to the victory. This victory although was short lived, but this victory showed that they were strong and powerful. This unlikely victory against overwhelming odds is remembered every May fifth. Cinco de Mayo represented a great symbolic victory for the Mexican government and bolstered the resistance movement. This holiday is often confused with Mexico’s Independence Day, which is on September 16.…

    “Women with their torsos torn apart by machine gun fire; children with their heads destroyed by the impact of high velocity weaponry, innocent bystanders gunned down; onlookers and journalist felled in the course of their everyday life; students, police officers and soldiers dead and wounded…Perhaps the most surprising aspect was the huge number of blood-stained shoes that were scattered around the area, silent witnesses to the disappearance of their owners” (Poniatowska, 1971:201). Like many other countries around the world students have experienced movements demanding political and social change. Mexican students started the movement on July 22, 1968 and it only lasted a couple of months until the tragedy…

    Women's Rights Dbq

    During the peace and freedom movement of the 1960s, protesting the Vietnam War, there was gender inequality present even among the protesters. Women typically had less important roles in the movement. In an inverse way, this inspired them. They were fighting for freedom, a better society, and equality between people. Yet they themselves were not equal. If they were to fight for equality for other people then they also needed to fight for equality for themselves and their fellow women. The peace and freedom movement was caused to stop the war in Vietnam. Because men and women were working together to end the war, women became increasingly aware of the fact that they were valued less than men even if they did the same work. (Doc, 3). Latina women specifically had a huge need to fight for inequality. They were inspired by multiple movements. They were inspired by the fight against the oppression of the working class, the fight against the oppression Chicana women suffered at the hands of men, as well as the general feminist movement. In a way, all of the movements coexisting during this time period all inspired and were inspired by each other (Doc, 5). The feminist movement especially affected by other…

    The Chicano Movement

    Some females sensed that the Chicano movement was too concerned with social issues that affected the Chicano community as a total rather than problems that affected Chicana women specifically. This led Chicana women to form the Comisión Femenil Mexicana Nacional. In 1975, it won Madrigal V. Quilligan, obtaining a standstill on the enforced cleansing of women and adoption of bilingual consent forms. Previous to the case, many Hispanic women who did not understand English were being treated in the United States without suitable…
