Definición

  • The Young Lords started as a turf gang of young Puerto Rican men, residents of the Lincoln Park neighborhood in Chicago, who protested against the abuses of the government and other repressive institutions. In 1966, in the midst of the Division Street and African American riots, Jose Cha-Cha Rodríguez, one of the group's founders, was in jail.
