This article presents the historical roots (raíces) of Chicana feminism, chronicles Chicana activism of the 1960s into the present, and details the challenges and opposition faced by both the Chicano and white feminist movements. Moreover, the implications of the rise of feminist thought/discourse and its advancement of women of color in academia are discussed. Chicana feminism has been instrumental to reinforce the efforts of Chicanas and Chicana/Latina-focused groups such as MALCS (Mujeres Activas en Letras y Cambio Social) to question and challenge norms, practices, mainstream beliefs, and the status quo to create social change.
