Young Lords
In Lincoln Park
Interviewee: Carol Blakely
Interviewer: Jose Jimenez
Location: Grand Valley State University Special Collections
Date: 10/19/2012
Runtime: 01:53:23
Biography and Description
Oral history of Carol Blakely, interviewed by Jose “Cha-Cha” Jimenez on October 19, 2012 about the
Young Lords in Lincoln Park.
"The Young Lords in Lincoln Park" collection grows out of decades of work to more fully document the
history of Chicago's Puerto Rican community which gave birth to the Young Lords Organization and later,
the Young Lords Party. Founded by Mr. José “Cha-Cha” Jiménez, the Young Lords became one of the
premier struggles for international human rights. Where thriving church congregations, social and
�political clubs, restaurants, groceries, and family residences once flourished, successive waves of urban
renewal and gentrification forcibly displaced most of those Puerto Ricans, Mejicanos, other Latinos,
working-class and impoverished families, and their children in the 1950s and 1960s. Today these same
families and activists also risk losing their history.

Interviewee: Maria Aviles
Interviewers: Jose Jimenez
Location: Grand Valley State University Special Collections
Date: 9/27/2018
Runtime: 01:01:38
Biography and Description
Maria Isabel de la Torre (maiden name), Maria Isabel Aviles (married name), was born in Rio Piedras,
Puerto Rico. She arrived in the US in 1954 to Rochester, NY, and migrated to Chicago in 1958. Her
parents were Josephina Davila Vazquez and Victor Manuel de la Torre. They remained in Puerto Rico.
She is one of four siblings which lived at 625 W. Webster in the Lincoln Park Neighborhood for about
eight years. The family then moved to the Lake View area. Her work experience included administrative
work with medical records, hospital admissions and translation (10 years); and retail. She became the

Maria is the proud mother of four accomplished children. She describes the abundance of local dances
all over Lincoln Park and the adjacent Lakeview neighborhood which was the same barrio for Latinos
that stretched from North Avenue to Irving Park and between Clark Street to Racine in the late 1950’s
and 1960’s.
