Oral History Interview with Lupe Casares, July 7, 2016 captions transcript

Oral History Interview with Lupe Casares, July 7, 2016

Guadalupe "Lupe" Casares was born in 1950 in Santa Rosa, Texas, which is located in the Rio Grande Valley. Growing-up as a migrant farmworker, he traveled throughout the United States for much of his youth. After Casaras' father passed away from Tuberculosis in 1965, his family would settle in the midwest and he would attend school for first time. He would eventually work for the University of Wisconsin to recruit Mexican American students from Mercedes, Texas. The Black Power Movement along with his families' own resistance to discrimination would propell him to become involved in the Texas Farm Workers Movement, the Mexican American Youth Organization, and the founding of the first Chicana/o college--Colegio Jacinto Treviño in Mercedes, Texas. Casares talks about segregation as it relates to the Mexican American community, the ideological differences in the farmworkers struggle, and how Colegio Jacinto Treviño played an influential role in liberating the minds of Chicanas/os. He also discusses the many struggles embedded in the broader fight for Chicana/o freedom--tackling police brutality, establishing educational self-determination, obtaining labor rights, pressuring for welfare rights, and utllizing teatro to raise awareness. Lastly, Casares talks about his dedication to filmmaking.
