I definitely second Harris’s recommendation of “Precious Knowledge.”  In 
English, but so great.
Also, here’s a post from my blog that is somewhat related:

Alissa,
On Vashon, we recently used the 2014 release Cesar Chavez to our Spanish 
3/Intermediate Low-Mid class and 2012 Precious Knowledge to the Spanish 
2/Novice Mid-High classes to prompt discussion of Hispanic issues in education 
and activism. I recommend them.

This is my first year teaching a Spanish Heritage class. We just finished 
watching “Walkout” and have been looking at data on Hispanic in schools such as 
drop out, percent in college and so on. I’m now looking for any short stories 
that talk about Hispanic education, activism, Latino rights…anything to 
continue to talk, inspire, help them dig deeper and so on. I prefer in Spanish 
but let me know what you got.

Also, this is my first year teaching it, so I am a little low in resources. If 
you have any other resources for a heritage class – I welcome them!
