This is a call for pride in being Chicano, for unity instead of fighting between gangs. The central figure is the Aztec king Cuauhtemoc. His name means "Descending Eagle" in the Aztec language Nahuatl. By Juan Pueblo, Donna Reyes, George Duarte, and several assistants. -- Dunitz, Street gallery, p. 139, #25.
