aztlán underground

The dormant giant has awakened. Throughout the Southwest known to Chicanos as Aztlán, the movement of the struggle is still in effect and greater than ever. Treated as foreigners in our own land, Aztlán Underground(AUG) was founded to voice the anger and frustration of the poor and powerless. Formed in Los Angeles in 1990, AUG has been true to their name and beliefs by playing political rallies and underground venues and anywhere that the doors were not closed. Creating a new sound that is still evolving, AUG captures the psyche and transcends to all ethnic groups, capturing a universal rhythm to convey their message of "self-determination and decolonization."
