>>5557700 (You) Good dig on DIA mural painter Leo Tanguma.

Continuing the dig. Yep he's a Communist

In 1972 in Mexico City, Leo Tanguma met David Alfaro Siqueiros who significantly influenced his work. Siqueriros advised Tanguma to take his themes from American life and to avoid strictly folkloric material.

Who is David Alfaro Siqueiros ?

He was a Stalinist in support of the Soviet Union and a member of the Mexican Communist Party who led an unsuccessful attempt to assassinate Leon Trotsky in May 1940.

The Chicano Moratorium, formally known as the National Chicano Moratorium Committee, was a movement of Chicano anti-war activists that built a broad-based coalition of Mexican-American groups to organize opposition to the Vietnam War. Led by activists from local colleges and members of the "Brown Berets", a group with roots in the high school student movement that staged walkouts in 1968, the coalition peaked with an August 29, 1970 march in East Los Angeles that drew 30,000 demonstrators
