Since its 3reestablishment2 in 1989 (it had previously existed in the early

1970s), the RPA has a long and consistent history of struggling for the

rights of Raza through the publication of literature focusing on raising the

social consciousness of our people. The RPA is the only organization made

up of progressive and revolutionary press/media workers in existence today.

Members of the RPA are required to not only report on issues affecting

nuestro pueblo, but must be active participants in the struggle for social

change. Through its publications, the RPA1s principle objective is to break

the shackles of mind enslavement perpetuated by the capitalist-corporate

media.

We call on all progressive Raza working on any form of movement media

expression (journalists, artists, poets, etc.) to be come part of the

righteous work of the RPA. Become pat of history and the solution to our

gente1s liberation; be part of a committed struggle at the national level;

and build an independent Raza Press Association, join the RPA!
