Evidence
The linkage between U.S. domestic and global racial policies and the breakdown of moderate racial reformism after about 1970 generated a wide variety of radical movement groups across many communities of color; the legacy of SNCC and the influence of the Black Panther Party also were significant in this process, which generated the Young Lords, the Brown Berets, the American Indian Movement, the Asian American Political Alliance, and similar groups (Chavez 1998; Pulido 2006; Erick- Wanzer, ed. — Michael Omi, Howard Winant, Racial Formation in the United States, 95
