The Brown Berets Organization impacted the Chicano Movement in a powerful manner from its beginnings, in 1967, until the early eighties.
Their slogans of "Viva La Raza " and "Chicano Power " still resonate today in the hearts of many younger.
They clashed with police, were infiltrated by law officers, sometimes fought among themselves, but Through it all, they persisted in their commitment to the cause.
Known primarily for their militancy, the Berets were often compared to the Black Panthers.
