Chamorro Documentary Project, 1989-1990 2.5 Linear Feet — 5 boxes — Approximately 1572 items

In 1990, Frank Espada was asked by his friend and colleague from Chicago, Samuel Betances, to photograph the indigenous Chamorro people of Guam, Saipan, Titian and Rota in the Mariana Islands. Modeled after Espada's Puerto Rican Diaspora project, the aim of this project was to chronicle the Chamorro culture as well as the social challenges faced by this group, whose diaspora includes Hawaii and California. Some of the photographs in this series were taken at a Chamorro festival in California, but most were taken on Guam, the island with the largest concentration of Chamorro people. One series of about 290 work prints documents the funeral procession and expressions of protest after the suicide of former Guam governor Ricardo Bordallo in February 1990. Specific projects, programs, and protests are described in the photograph or folder titles. Most titles are retained from the originals.

Later, he also documented anti-poverty and housing rights actions in California, especially in San Francisco. Specific projects, programs, and protests are described in the photograph or folder titles. Materials are arranged roughly in order by decade. Most titles are retained from the originals.
