MEM An original 43.2 x 29cm campaign broadsheet supporting Ricardo Chavez Ortiz. Small folio, folded, unpaginated, with Spanish and English texts and black and white photographs. N.p.[Los Angeles], n.p. [Chavez Defence Fund/ Centros de Accion Social Autonomo?], n.d. [1972]. Endemic browning, creased, one central fold with splitting to margins. A very rare item. Ortiz was a 37-year-old unemployed Chicano restaurant worker who hijacked a plane in 1972, apparently demanding to speak live on radio about the problems afflicting Chicano communities. The plane was forced to land at LAX, where Ortiz peacefully surrendered. The title on front page reads: "Honor whom honor deserves. Ricardo Chavez Ortiz. Your conscience tells you exactly what to do".
