Ernesto Todd Mireles

Ernesto Mireles is a Professor of Social Justice Studies at Prescott College. He is the author of the award winning book Insurgent Aztlan.

I learned to be an organizer the old fashion way: knocking doors, visiting workers protesting the police, building grassroots organization. My organizing education was front line, hands on, and experiential. My formal education centers on the same, organizing and researching  indigenous insurgency, national liberation and anti colonial resistance at the intersection of political sovereignty, mobilization and party building.

I want to work with people who are passionate about social justice and the preservation of Xicano Indigenous culture through political action, people who are ready to take on the challenges of being on the front lines of the battle against socio-economic inequalities, and political repression. Working closely with intellectuals, artists, activists, and organizers to bring the full force of cultural resistance to bear on the problems RAZA faces every day.
