My father Gus Zamora was involved in the trial and sent to San Quentin. His passing in 1983 was difficult. Just recently I've been on a mission to learn more about his past. He is in this video montage paused at 2:57 (second to the right). I have a sense of sadness of what happened. I want to Thank You all for keeping the memory alive and not let this tragic moment be forgotten. I know my father is smiling from heaven....
thank you for this. i am writing a paper on the zoot suit riots.i loved seeing the pictures that bring to life the articles i have been researching. my grandfather was part of this time.
the bad thing about it is the fact that decades later the gangs got violent and it really gives us mexican americans a bad name. But the zoot suit era was great.
fuck you all racist in the world if anything we need to each other and the fucking color skin doesn't matters we all are humas and WE HAVE TO ENJOY LIFE LIKE BROTHERS
This has got to be the most embarrassing shows of utter racism by everyone involved. I feel sad for all of you that you feel that anybody is superior to anyone else because of the color of their skin. You should all be embarrassed of yourselves.
que buena onda!!! very nice and thanks for share!

If people had enough rights they wouldn`t have to fight for it.
They would not have to make an understatement through their clothes.
And nobody is really white, that is not a scin colour.
America is build up by a lot of nations, from all over the world.
Have a very nice Christmas and a happy newyear.
