Our Lady of Guadalupe is the patron saint of Mexico and her image has become a national symbol playing a role in many historical events for Mexicans and Mexican-Americans alike. Father Miguel Hidalgo鈥檚 rallying cry at the beginning of Mexico鈥檚 war of independence from Spain in 1810 was 鈥淟ong live the Virgin of Guadalupe!鈥� and Cesar Chavez prominently used her image during the Mexican-American civil rights movement.

An apparition appearing for the second time to Juan Diego on December 12, 1531, the vision of Our Lady of Guadalupe was a leading factor in the conversion of indigenous people to Catholicism. The , or cloak, of Juan Diego depicting the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, remains on display at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. Nearly 500 years old and defying scientific explanation, the tilma is seen as a miracle. Appearing as a dark-skinned woman, Our Lady of Guadalupe was seen as the mother figure, being forgiving and all-loving for the indigenous people of Mexico. Still today throughout Mexico and the United States, she is seen as a source of hope for poor, oppressed, or marginalized people.
