- I would like to thank former RGS/UPS staff that provided me with their insights and most of the historical background on the organization: Willie Vazquez, Harry Quintana, Victor Feliciano (founding members of RGS/UPS), RGS staff members Bruce Young Candelaria, Carmen Gloria Baba, Sara Myrta Cruz, and Jaime Suárez. I would also like to thank Bruce Dale who worked with the East Harlem Studio of Columbia University and with RGS/UPS as a consultant. This essay is builtaround the personal recollections of those actors contacted and those of the author. It is also based on two proposals submitted by RGS/UPS to the Ford Foundation and other foundations. In the proposals the philosophy of the organization is expounded and projects are discussed. The essay does not represent the opinions of those interviewed, nor is it the final work on RGS/UPS. I would also like to thank Professor Betty Woody of CPCS/U.MASS Boston for her critical suggestions on the manuscript.
