Rodolfo "Corky" Gonzales was a Chicano boxer and political organizer and activist. Gonzales was one of many leaders for the Crusade for Justice in Colorado; the Crusade for Justice was noted for being an urban rights and Chicano cultural urban movement during the 1960s focusing on social and economic justice for Chicanos. Gonzales convened the first-ever Chicano Youth Liberation Conference in 1968, poorly attended due to timing and weather conditions. Gonzales tried again in March 1969, established what is known as the First Chicano Youth Liberation Conference; this Conference was attended by artists. The conference birthed the Plan Espiritual de Aztlán, a pro-indigenist manifesto advocating revolutionary Chicano nationalism and self-determination for all Chicanos. Through the Crusade for Justice, Gonzalez organized the Mexican American people of Denver to fight for their cultural and economic rights, leaving his mark on Chicano History. Roldolfo Gonzales was the youngest of Federico and Indalesia Gonzalez’ eight children in Denver Colorado in 1928.

His father had immigrated to Colorado at an early age from Chihuahua,Mexico as an immigrant Federico Gonzalez taught the histories of Mexico's struggle against Spanish domination and against Porfirio Díaz. Federico Gonzales imparted his knowledge to his son, a struggle that culminated in the Mexican Revolution. Rodolfo’s mother, Indalesia Gonzalez died when Rodolfo was two years old and his father never remarried. Gonzales and his siblings were raised in Denver's tough "Eastside Barrio", where the Great Depression took an heavier toll on Mexican Americans. However, according to Gonzales, "though the Depression was devastating to so many, we, as children, were so poor that it was hardly noticed"; the Gonzalez’s were a poor family. Rodolfo, along with his mother and siblings worked in the fields, his father worked hard in the coal mines to provide for the family through Rodolfo’s life. Gonzales attended high schools in Colorado and New Mexico while working in the beet fields, graduated from Manual High School at the age of 16.

Since his youth he demonstrated a fiery tendency, which caused his uncle to say that "He was always popping off like a cork. So, we called him Corky." The nickname stuck. In February 1949 at the age of 21/22 Corky married Geraldine Romero 17/18. Roldofo and Grealdine had eight children, who took on their father’s legacy of the Crusade for Justice. Gonzales had a successful professional boxing career and at one time was ranked as a top three Featherweight by Ring Magazine; however he always lost when never received a shot at the title. He retired from the ring in 1955 after compiling a record of 63 wins, 11 losses, 1 draw. Gonzalez found the sport empowering, he says “I bleed as the vicious gloves of hunger cut my face and eyes, as I fight my way from stinking barrios to the glamour of the ring and the lights of fame or mutilated sorrow.” Nonetheless, his success in boxing lent him a prominence that he would capitalize upon during his political career. Gonzales would be inducted into the Colorado Sports Hall of Fame in 1988.

When Gonzales turned to politics, he was ranked the 5th best boxer in the world. Gonzales early political involvement in the Democratic party centered around campaigning for the Mayor of Denver Quigg Newton in 1947, registering Latino voters for the Democratic party in 1950 and leading the Colorado "Viva Kennedy" campaign. Gonzales' successful efforts to organize for change within the Democratic party became a crucial turning point toward Chicano Nationalist politics and the foundation of the Crusade for Justice in 1967. In 1966, Gonzales had written a letter of resignation to Mr. Alfredo J. Hernandez the chair of SER in Denver stating, “S. E. R. is offering a gateway to a society that offers hypocrisy, sterilization and neurosis in exchange for the values of integrity that are inherent in our culture.” “I will not compromise my principles, me ideals and my honor to be seated at the same table with hypocrites.” Gonzales concluded. Believing chicanos could not rely on the "gringo establishment" to provide education, economic stability, or social acceptance, he sought alternatives.

The Crusade for Justice was an idea born from the Fisherman’s meetings. These meetings were the original organization of Chicanos discussing issues surrounding Chicano rights and culture; the Fisherman meetings started out small, without the structure the Crusade for Justice developed later. The goal was to gain a following, to spread education on the injustices Chicanos were experiencing. To begin with, the Fisherman’s meetings were only open to men; when the conversation started to cross over from culture to more political issues, such as border laws, women demanded a part in the discussions, women were directly affected just as much as the men, by the topics at hand. Gonzales believed in the power of educating the people around him, bringing the Chicano community together to hear one another's voices. Gonzales said, “You have to get people involved, the best way to do, to live among the people, to hear what they are saying and to agitate them”; the development of the Crusade for Justice helped gain momentum for the Chicano Movement in Denver.

The Chicano movement was not political in their organizing and education,“it was about art, vision, pride and value of participation” Gonzalez explained. Gonzales took the ideas developed through the Crusade and implemented them at a personal level, making it into the political force it became, he had the courage and abili
