Comment. Which sources, specifically, are you disputing? The major source appears to be The Chicano Movement, a scholarly book edited by Professor Mario T. Garcia of UC Santa Barbara and published by Routledge.

KeepThe Chicano Movement is a reliable source, and while I don't own it, I'm going to assume that it covers her in fairly significant detail considering that the article cites to it 28 times.

Weak keep. The chapter in the Chicano Movement appears to be an interview (the chapter title begins "An Oral History"), as do the material in We are Aztlán and also the Oregonian piece. So these sources are in good part primary; other sources are quite a bit weaker. OTOH, the interviewers believed the subject here to be notable enough as an activist to interview. That is, the data of the actual interview is a primary source (useable only for non-controversial details), but the meta-data surrounding it I believe to be secondary. I think it's weakly enough for
WP:BASIC. Like others here, I have not actually examined the text of most of the sources. The article could use a good trim.

Keep Several of the sources are significant, reliable, and independent per
WP:RS. ––
