In the 1960s, Gonzales emerged as a leader of the Chicano Movement. He co-founded the Crusade for Justice, a Denver-based organization that fought for fair housing, education, and employment for Mexican Americans. Gonzales also became a vocal advocate for the rights of migrant farm workers.

In 1970, Gonzales ran for mayor of Denver. He lost the election, but his campaign inspired a new generation of Chicano activists. He continued to work for social justice throughout his life, and he died in 2005 at the age of 76.
