Pedro J. Gonzalez and attorney Anna Zacsek in a courtroom, Los Angeles, 1935

Description:: Pedro J. Gonzalez had an important role in Mexican-American music of the twentieth century, as both a performer and, to a greater extent, a popularizer of the style. He had a radio program to promote his music and had also used his program to advocate social justice for Spanish speakers in Southern California, and to protest the deportation of hundreds of thousands of such people from the United States. Gonzalez was earlier convicted for raping 15 year old Aphrodite Versus, a ruling he challenged on the grounds that he was convicted on perjured testimony. In Los Angeles, the young victim said she had lied because the city officials had promised to keep her out of reform school if she accused Pedro. The judge refused to admit her affidavit. The earlier ruling was upheld and he was sentenced to 1-50 years after his plea for probation was denied on Nov. 7, 1935. In prison, Pedro served as a translator and de facto liaison helping fellow Spanish speaking inmates and was instrumental in a hunger strike that led to the reforms in theCalifornia penal system. Pedro J. Gonzalez defense committees sprung up throughout the Southwest and northern Mexico. Pedro's family, fans, and the Mexican consul in Los Angeles worked tirelessly on his behalf until finally in 1940, he was released from prison on the condition that he be deported from the United States.
