Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Examines how poor and working-class communities in Guadalajara organized through faith, education, and culture to claim dignity, justice, and the right to the city.Strength in Unity: Christian Base Communities and the Urban Popular Movement in Guadalajara, 19651994 presents the grassroots history of Guadalajara's urban popular movement, centering the voices and struggles of poor and working-class communities, especially women, who organized for dignity, justice, and the right to the city. Brad H. Wright brings to light the transformative role of Christian base communities and Freirean popular education as incubators of political consciousness and collective action in the face of authoritarian repression and neoliberal coaptation.Drawing from oral histories, personal archives, and the records of the Sagrado Corazon nuns, Wright reconstructs a powerful counternarrative to dominant portrayals of marginalized populations as "apathetic" and "uneducated." Strength in Unity reveals a vibrant culture of resistance where women led campaigns for basic services, built schools, and demanded access to transportation, using tools such as community newspapers, street theater, and music to mobilize and sustain solidarity.This deeply researched and compellingly told history challenges conventional accounts of urban development and social movements in Latin America. Strength in Unity is essential reading for scholars, students, and activists interested in grassroots organizing, liberation theology, and the enduring power of community-led change. Strength in Unity examines how poor and working-class communities in Guadalajara, especially women, organized through Christian base communities and popular education to demand justice, services, and the right to the city. Drawing on oral histories and archival research, Wright reveals a vibrant culture of resistance often erased from official narratives.
