Yes he did. I had Brown Berets at my ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, I kid you not!
Yep, the Brown Berets came up from Longmont, and yanked a white teacher out of class and gave him a beat down. They got arrested for assault and battery. Then the principle gave all the Chicanos the afternoon off so they could picket in front of the school, demanding more Chicano counselors. All us white kids had to stay in class....
The school did it’s best to stir up bad race relations, but for the most part all us kids grew up together and were not racist towards each other. The school was 50/50 whites and Chicano’s and I think we had something like 6 black kids out of 1000 students...
