| Abstract | Since the 1960s the Episcopal Church of the Epiphany in Lincoln Heights has played an integral role in advancing Latino interests, providing many Chicano leaders with the space to organize and produce lasting pieces of Chicano history. -- Built in 1886, Epiphany is the oldest standing Episcopal Church in Los Angeles and was recently designated a Cultural Heritage Monument by the City. But the Church and its clergy have seldom been recognized for their role in the Chicano movement. -- It was back in 1967 when David Sanchez first organized the Brown Berets within the Church's walls. Epiphany's basement served both as a meeting place for organizers of the East L.A. Walkouts, as well as the birthplace of La Raza, a newspaper directed at the Chicano community. -- The Church and its congregation also played a role in advocating the neighborhood's cultural identity, often integrating mariachi, ballet folklorico, piñatas and Mexican food with church events. |
