Campaign Material, Finances and Expenses, 1972-1973
Scope and Content Note
The Roberto Reveles Papers contain correspondence, photographs, newspaper clippings, organizational records, subject files, and other items documenting Reveles' career as a congressional staffer for five congressmen in Arizona, New Jersey, and Washington, D.C. between 1956 and 1980. His work as an advocate for civil rights and immigration reform in the Mexican and Mexican-American communities is also shown.
Series I: Personal includes correspondence, photographs, and artifacts. This series also contains files documenting Reveles' campaign for congress in 1972. Series II: Politics contains information about political figures and parties, political issues, special projects, and newspaper clippings dating from 1955 to 1990. Series III: Somos America documents the early history of this organization. Reveles and members of this group participated in a historic Phoenix march on April 10, 2006 in response to inhumane federal immigration laws. Series IV: Subject Files contains documents about organizations, people, locations, and subjects. These documents were originally collected and organized into subject files by Reveles, and this order has been retained.
