Summer 2025 - Professor Romero had interesting things to say. It was a pretty easy class, but he did always feel the need to bring up his book. You could really hear his passion about Chicanx history. There was no in person final, it was just a take home final (essay). He was a bit unorganized. His syllabus said we would watch about 5-6 movies but we only ended up watching 3. Working with the TA was always so interesting because he was a law student. To be honest, it was a very easy GE.

Fall 2025 - Loved his class. You had to attend to pass tho ngl. You must take notes, which is simple (and needed) for the only exam at the end: an essay. This is an easy course and a great, informative introduction to Chicano studies. Take this class with him; he also had a great guest speaker, and we all took several things away from the presentation!!!

Winter 2019 - This class was super easy. I didn't really pay attention in lecture and only read one book out of the two required. Just read one book and you'll be fine and take notes on the slides because he doesn't post them on ccle. If you need any of the books from the class (Critical Race Theory or The Latino Threat) message me, I'm selling them for cheaper than the UCLA store **********

Fall 2020 - I took this as a FIAT LUX, and glad I took it. Professor Romero is a super genuine, happy, and informative person. Obviously, this class is not hard at all. The only thing required to pass is one assignment at the end of the quarter. If you identify as a Chicano/a and want to learn more about your culture, then this class will do that. Even if you're not Chicano/a, it is still interesting. Be ready to get political though. Every class turned to a political topic. Overall, easy, interesting class.
