Having interviewed 16 activists involved in the vibrant Los Angeles area labor and immigrant workers movement, Brodken (anthropology and women's studies, U. of California at Los Angeles) uses their experiences in order to describe how social movements arise out of interconnections in the way activists analyze their own politicization process in connect them to the social movements they seek to build, in terms of its political actors, practices, organizational forms, and goals; in how their cultural communities shaped their politics and political selves; and in how their politics have led them to challenge prevailing views of their own cultures and to strengthen alternative internal perspectives.
