Iris Morales’ award-winning documentary which aired on PBS’s POV, depicts how Latinx communities fought for economic and social justice during the civil rights movement, Vietnam War protests, and the women’s equality movement. The Young Lords were a militant youth group that demanded equality, access, and empowerment for Puerto Ricans and other Latinx groups from Chicago to New York City. Morales utilized archival footage, interviews, and photos to showcase the activities, philosophy, dismantling, and legacy of The Young Lords, the torturous end of the organization, and its inspiring legacy.
