Partido Nacional de La Raza Unida (National United Peoples Party or United Race Party) was an American political party which became famous in the 1970s. It fought for better housing, work, and educational opportunities for Mexican-Americans. In 1972, a call was issued by by Reyes Lopez Tijerina, Rodolfo “Corky” Gonzales, and Jose Angel Gutierrez, for a national convention in El Paso, Texas. The purpose was to create a national political party for Chicanos, La Raza Unida Party (LRUP). At that time Chicano movement activists perceived the convention as being the most important political event to be ever be organized by Chicanos in the history of the U.S. Over 3,000 Chicanos from 18 states, the majority from the Southwest, but some as far away as Washington, D.C., Maryland, Rhode Island, Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin and Nebraska convened at the historic national convention to discuss strategy and policy to create the new national Chicano political party.
