> **Latino Theater Company** joins forces with the **Los Angeles City College Theatre Academy** to present ***August 29****,* named for the date in 1970 when *Los Angeles Times* columnist Ruben Salazar was killed while covering a large Chicano-led anti-war demonstration in East L.A. A university professor relives those late 1960s, early 1970s movement days while writing a book on the life of Salazar, who comes to life to help her recall the past and to challenge her to renew her activism. A showing of the short film ***Requiem 29***, presenting footage of the Chicano Moratorium Against the War in Vietnam including the brutal police response, and later funeral and inquest into the death of Salazar, will screen prior to each performance. Following performances at The LATC, the production will travel to **East Los Angeles College** and **Mt. San Antonio College**.
