El Clamor Publico, vol. I, no. 1, Junio 19 de 1855

El Clamor Publico is available through a partnership with The Huntington Library, who generously allowed USC to digitize their complete holdings of this newspaper. Billed as Los Angeles' "Periodico Independiente y Literario," El Clamor Publico was the first Spanish-language newspaper in California after the American occupation. It was founded by the former Spanish editor of the Los Angeles Star, Francisco P. Ramirez, a 19-year old printer. Published weekly, 233 four-page issues were published between July 1855 and August 1859.The initially moderate paper evolved into an activist tabloid and espoused strong political views generally in support of the Mexicanos. While articles commonly dealt with American political ideology and practice, the newspaper's publication of poetry and literature make it an excellent source of cultural history. It was distributed as far north as San Francisco. For additional information see an account of the historic building in Los Angeles which housed the newspaper at Mexican Americans in California: Historic Sites: El Clamor Publico Site (https://www.cr.nps.gov/history/online_books/5views/5views5h34.htm).

《公众呼声报》（El Clamor Publico）可通过与亨廷顿图书馆（The Huntington Library）的合作项目获取，该馆慷慨授权南加州大学（University of Southern California, USC）对其馆藏的该报全部藏品进行数字化处理。该报对外标榜为洛杉矶的"独立文学报刊（Periodico Independiente y Literario）"，是美国占领加利福尼亚州之后加州境内的首份西班牙语报纸。它由时任《洛杉矶之星报》（Los Angeles Star）前西语版编辑、时年19岁的印刷工弗朗西斯科·P·拉米雷斯（Francisco P. Ramirez）创立。该报为周刊，于1855年7月至1859年8月期间共计发行233期四版报纸。这份起初风格温和的报纸，后续逐渐演变为一份秉持鲜明政治立场的行动主义小报，总体上支持墨西哥裔群体的诉求。尽管其刊载内容常涉及美国的政治意识形态与实践，但该报同时刊登诗歌与文学作品，因此亦是研究加州文化史的优质史料来源。其发行范围北至旧金山。如需获取更多相关信息，可参阅《加州墨西哥裔美国人：历史遗址：<公众呼声报>旧址》一文中关于该报社所在洛杉矶历史建筑的相关记述（https://www.cr.nps.gov/history/online_books/5views/5views5h34.htm）。
