Major Premise / Critique ·
Garcia’s analysis is inconsistent
He undermines his own claim that the Generation is political diverse.
Premise ·
Groups were diametrically opposed to each other
One group emphasized assimilation; another group emphasized bilingual education.
Gracia's Analysis ·
Acknowledge but dismiss as insignificant
Premise / Critique ·
These differences were not insignificant

Major Premise / Critique ·
Garcia may be exaggerating how representative the Generation's views were
The Mexican American population may not have shared those views.
Garcia's Argument ·
Leaders wanted full civil rights for US residents of Mexican descent
More Mexican Americans born in the US and more politically active
Premise / Critique ·
Did the Mexican American population share these views?
It's unclear. Need to have better understanding how patterns of bilingualism, rates of immigration, and variations in ethnic consciousness impacts politics to answer the question.
