Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Royal Chicano Air Force (RCAF) is a Sacramento, California-based art collective. It was one of the main centers of the Chicano art movement in California during the 1970s and 80s. In 1969, poet and art instructor José Montoya joined with some of his talented Mexican American students to further the aims of the Chicano Movement. The Rebel Chicano Art Front was founded to foster support for Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers in the heavily-agricultural Sacramento-Davis area. When Montoya discovered that because of the group''s the initials, they might be confused with the Royal Canadian Air Force, the artists decided that rather than change the name of the group to create a different initialism, they would keep the initials RCAF and change the name of the collective to "Royal Chicano Air Force" as a humorous gesture. From that point on, the artists used the "Air Force" motif in their artworks, programs, and activities.
