Young Lords
In Lincoln Park
Interviewee: Jose Jimenez
Location: Grand Valley State University Special Collections
Date: 7/14/2012
Runtime: 00:28:27
Biography and Description
Oral history and interview of Jose “Cha-Cha” Jimenez on March 15, 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.

Young Lords
In Lincoln Park
Interviewee: Antonio López
Interviewers: José “Cha-Cha” Jiménez
Location: Grand Valley State University Special Collections
Date: 7/11/2012
Biography and Description
Antonio López grew up in the Logan Square Neighborhood of Chicago and heard about the Young Lords
early in life, as his parents are activists. Mr. López is also active in various projects and community
organizations. He is of Mexican descent and Logan Square is currently a prime real estate target for
developers, who continue to prey on Latinos and the poor, and are supported by city hall and their
housing Master Plan. In fact it is not hard to locate many of these developers who readily finance
machine loyalists and who have sat and still sit on the many city boards. Mr. López ‘s parents were
connected to the land grant struggles in New Mexico that were being led by Reis López Tijerina. Mr.
Tijerina was born on September 21, 1926 near Falls City, Texas. He is preacher who founded the Alianza
Federal de Pueblos Libres (Federal Alliance of Land Grants) in New Mexico. He is widely credited as
launching the early Chicano Civil Rights Movement, although Mr. Tijerina prefers the term “Indo Hispano
Movement” because the word “Chicano” can also divide Mexicans. At the time of this oral history, Mr.
López was completing his doctoral studies in the Department of History at the University of Texas, El
Paso. His doctoral dissertation focuses on the Rainbow Coalition, which originally began with Chairman
Fred Hampton and included the Young Patriots and Young Lords. Mr. López has voluntarily assisted the
Young Lords on various projects beyond his dissertation.

Young Lords
In Lincoln Park
Interviewee: Felipe Luciano
Interviewer: Jose Jimenez
Location: Grand Valley State University Special Collections
Date: 3/15/2013
Runtime: 01:13:52
Biography and Description
Oral history of Felipe Luciano, interviewed by Jose “Cha-Cha” Jimenez on March 15, 2013 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.

Young Lords
In Lincoln Park
Interviewee: Alfredo Matias
Interviewers: José “Cha-Cha” Jiménez
Location: Grand Valley State University Special Collections
Date: 4/2/2012
Biography and Description
Alfredo Matias is the happy son of Doña Carmen García and a Young Lord going back to the mid-1960s.
Mr. Matias joined the Young Lords during the Month of Soul Dances at St. Michael’s Church Gymnasium
in Lincoln Park. Those neighborhood dances were held for four consecutive Saturdays and the Young
Lords purchased 40, 30-minute advertising slots on the radio to announce the dances. The affairs were
so well attended they were overfilled each night. Monies from the dances were used by the Young Lords
to purchase their club sweaters, which were to be all black with a violet stripe along each shoulder –
colors chosen from the film, “West Side Story.” The film had special significance for young Puerto Ricans
at the time because it was the only public movie of its day that portrayed Puerto Ricans living in the
United States, however problematically. A white, armor shield patch was sewn near one of the side
pockets. The letters “YL” in old English font were marked on the patch as well. Mr. Matias lived in
Lincoln Park and also in Wicker Park for many years. He saw both communities evict their primarily
Puerto Rican residents. For years, one could see Alfredo sitting in the park at Schiller and Damen Ave. or
walking along North Avenue, Milwaukee, Damen, and Division Streets. He would always be humble,
respectful and friendly, and his favorite past time was not whistling but “throwing flowers or
compliments at the ladies.” Mr. Matias has always been dedicated to his heros Don Pedro Albizu
Campos and Lolita Lebrón, and has performed his many poems at the nightclub “Weeds” and several
�other venues for free. A few of his poems include, “El Coquí,” “ El Grillo y La Luna,” “Sin Titulo,”
“Characters of my Poetry,” “Ponle Titulo,” and “Just a Poem.” Mr. Matias says that he was expelled
from school at 13 years of age, from Puerto Rico at age 15, and from the U.S. military at 17. He was
forced from the military because he refused to accept an order that would have sent him to Cuba to
fight alongside other Puerto Ricans in the Bay of Pigs invasion, against the sovereignty of Cuba. He said
then “that he was not going to ever fight in a war against a Latino nation.” The expulsion from the
military has caused him much suffering, including being denied any veteran’s benefits. Mr. Matias grew
up in Sabana Seca, Puerto Rico. SabanaSeca is a barrio of Tao Baja, 14 miles west of San Juan. It used to
house primarily a pineapple and grapefruit plantation called the “Stephenson Place,” but the 2250 acres
were acquired by the U.S. Navy during World War II. After the war, the property was turned over to the
U.S. Army and then back to the U.S. Navy. Since the 1898 military occupation of Puerto Rico by the
United States, six military installations have been established in Puerto Rico: one in the offshore island
of Culebra, another in the island of Vieques, and four others including Roosevelt Roads, Salinas, Fort
Allen, and Fort Buchanon. Today Mr. Matias is home in Puerto Rico, content to be by his mother’s side,
and still writing his poetry, “proud to be a Puerto Rican and a Young Lord to the bone.”

Young Lords
In Lincoln Park
Interviewee: Carlos Munoz
Interviewer: Jose Jimenez
Location: Grand Valley State University Special Collections
Date: 5/19/2013
Runtime: 01:05:02
Biography and Description
Oral history of Carlos Munoz, interviewed by Jose “Cha-Cha” Jimenez on May 19, 2013 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.
