The Story of Fred Ross and the Community Service Organization in Los Angeles

Fred Ross co-founded the Community Service Organization with Edward Roybal in 1947. The group began going door to door to reach out to local residents, focusing on getting Mexican Americans to register to vote and help immigrants obtain citizenship. With its growing power base, the CSO began to lobby city officials Take on corrupt police departments and help more local candidates like Roybal win elections.
