16" x 11 3/8". Newsprint. Pp. 8-12. Publication sequence [numbering inconsistent, as issued]: [July 1969]; Aug 22 1969; Vol. I (Feb 1970); Fiesta Issue (Aug 20 1970); Vol. II, No. 3 (Feb 1971); Vol. I, No. 5 [May 1971]. About very good: folded horizontally, likely as issued; one issue with a large section neatly excised and one with a few faint stains; several chips, tears and light wear to edges; lightly toned. This is a group of six issues of a very scarce Spanish- and English-language newspaper produced by and for the Latin American community of Santa Barbara, California, Salsipuedes. The issues cover state, national and international news and politics, as well as uplift and outreach efforts by college students and the community. They are also filled with original poems, photographic images, cheeky cartoons and powerful Hispanic art. Because it is the name of a major thoroughfare, dam and creek in the Santa Barbara area, online research on Salsipuedes proved nearly futile; thankfully the issues provide context. The paper appears to have been founded, at least in part, by student activists at UC Santa Barbara in 1969, very possibly with the first issue present, of July. In April of that year, Chicano students from twelve universities had met at UCSB; El Plan de Santa Barbára grew out of the conference. The Plan called for the unification of student activist groups into one umbrella organization, Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán, known as MEChA, and also led to the implementation of Chicano studies programs throughout the California university system. From 1969 to 1971, MEChA grew rapidly in California; it exists today (having gone through a number of name changes) as a national organization, per their Wikipedia page, "that seeks to promote Chicano unity and empowerment through political action." The second issue on offer here, of August 1969, has a staff list of six members, three of whom were women, including Mariana "Mary Anne" Marin. Marin helped to organize the landmark conference and draft El Plan; she graduated from UCSB in 1971 and had a long career as an attorney in the Office of the Legislative Counsel. This issue also has an article explaining the paper's name and goals: "In the early days of Mexican Santa Barbara, Salsipuedes referred to the eastern part of town which being a slough represented a physical barrier to easy access. As a result, the name given to the street: leave if you can . . . Even in those days Salsipuedes also represented a social world, the world of the low-born or poor . . . For us, Salsipuedes represents a specific historical reality, but also a challenge and a promise . . . a rebirth of our spirit and of our social involvement . . . If in the past the word expressed physical and social barriers, in the present it will express our creativity and our pride, in short, our liberation. A newspaper dedicated to the common good . . ." The February 1970 issue shared news and information on MEChA, as well as the ongoing grape boycott and "How You Can Help Farm Workers." An article in Spanish bemoaned the unique problems facing the community (injustice, poverty, lack of education and job opportunities), and beseeched residents to vote ("¡Sí Se Puede!") "to improve our economic, political and educational situation." There was news of local high schools and colleges, including "La Causa Drill Team," "made up of junior high school Chicano students . . . to emphasize pride and awareness and to develop discipline and leadership among the members." It also ran legal and medical aid services, including a clinic schedule, and great illustrated ads for restaurants, a realtor, clothiers and an "Artist's Co-Op." The Fiesta Issue of August 1970 included the statement of purpose and ten-point program of "Los Brown Berets," as well as a call to boycott the "Old Spanish Day Fiesta": "The majority of Santa Barbarans at the onset of the Anglo invasion were not Spanish but Indian and Mestizos. These are the peo. …

Description de la boutique
You may notice that despite the name of our business, you won't find a lot of books here. While we do sell some printed matter, we specialize in selling original source materials that tell compelling American stories. Our principal abandoned a reasonably successful law career to do this full time because life is too short not jump out of bed excited to start a work day. Our slogan, “The Extraordinary History of the Every Day”, matches our approach to the trade: we seek to preserve the exceptional stories of everyday people. Most of these folks probably had no idea that their actions were anything other than ordinary. As you look through our website and catalogs you'll find a wealth of compelling narratives. Also note that we don't limit ourselves to those lost to history as our work has enhanced many a wiki page. Considering our present inventory, you might also think we only buy and sell material related to underrepresented social groups and social movements. That's because of the response we receive from customers for this type of material and we would do nearly anything to avoid practicing law again. Truth be told, we get excited about preserving all sorts of interesting stories so the more you would educate us about your collecting interests, wants and what gets you excited, the more likely we'd recognize this material as something we should bring to market. So please feel free to reach out and tell us what you collect. Also, if you have items that you think may be of interest to us, please do not hesitate to write or call.…
