Dear Mr. Perez,

Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!

We searched the National Archives Catalog and locate the series Classification 44 (Civil Rights) Headquarters Case Files, 1/1/1920 - 12/31/1987 in the Records of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (Record Group 65) that includes the file unit 44-47789, California (1971) National Chicano Moratorium Committee. For more information about this file unit, please contact the National Archives at College Park - Textual Reference (RDT2) at archives2reference@nara.gov.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and pursuant to guidance received from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), NARA has adjusted its normal operations to balance the need of completing its mission-critical work while also adhering to the recommended social distancing for the safety of NARA staff. As a result of this re-prioritization of activities, you may experience a delay in receiving an initial acknowledgement as well as a substantive response to your reference request from RDT2. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding and patience.

We suggest that you contact the Los Angeles Police Department for any records they may have about the March and the police response.

Lastly, we searched the internet and located these articles/interviews titled Police Versus the Chicano Moratorium March of 1970; The Chicano Moratorium; Aug. 29, 1970: Chicano Moratorium and Murder of Journalist Ruben Salazar; and A Loss of Innocence.

We hope this is helpful. Best of luck with your research!
