Background
Rosalio Urias Munoz is a Los Angeles-based progressive social justice and peace activist, organizer, and writer/journalist. He was born in Flagstaff, Arizona on June 29, 1946 and moved with his family to Los Angeles a year later. His father, Rosalio F. Munoz, was born in Mexico, immigrating to the United States at five years of age. His mother, Maria, was from third and fifth generation immigrant families with earlier relatives migrating to the Tucson, Arizona area in the late 19th century. Both parents worked their way through college in the 1930s and met as teachers in Arizona. His father went on to get a Masters in Education at Arizona State Teachers College (now Arizona State University), an MSW at USC, and a PhD in Education from USC. He was among the highest ranking Mexican American administrators in the Los Angeles school district when he retired.
