The Rising of La Raza
La Raza is on the rise.
Wait, you’ve never heard of La Raza and don’t give a hoot whether it rises, falls, or turns purple?
That’s understandable if you don’t live in America’s southwest or out on the Left Coast. There, people are very familiar with at least the name “La Raza” even if many don’t understand the movement or its goals.
La Raza, “the race” in Spanish, doesn’t refer to a marathon or a sprint but rather to the National Council of La Raza, the NCLR, and the Movemiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan, MEChA.
What? You’ve never heard of Aztlan, the NCLR, or MEChA either?
Fear not, you soon may, although it’s doubtful you’ll hear or read much in the mainstream media about the plan of the radical, revolutionary La Raza to re-claim huge swaths of America’s southwest for Mexico to re-unify it under the mythical Mexican kingdom of Aztlan.
You soon may because President Barack Hussein Obama has just named former La Raza Vice President, Cecilia Muñoz, to the post of White House Domestic Policy Director. After serving for three years as Obama’s point woman on legalizing illegals, Muñoz will now be in charge of administering and executing the nation’s domestic policies.
She will also serve as a high-profile Latino during an election year in which the president is desperately seeking the Latino vote to put him over the top in November.
What’s wrong with this picture? Tons!
Aztlan or Aztatlian never existed except in Mexican legend yet La Raza is unabashedly dedicated to waging war on what it calls the “northern front” to seize lands allegedly stolen with the 1848 signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo.
That treaty concluded the Mexican-American War won by the United States and stripped Mexico of a full 55% of its territory.
Considering that La Raza is waging its vindictive and mindless war under the banner of a myth, its ambitions are breathtaking: Those lands now encompass the entirety of the states of Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon, parts of Washington, and would increase the size of Mexico by a full third, not to mention converting tens of millions of Americans into Mexicans.
It’s doubtful Cecilia Muñoz will be able to win the second Mexican-American war or accomplish that re-unification in her new role as National Domestic Policy Director.
Those scenarios are as doubtful as the probability that a previous vice president of La Raza will be fair and objective in conducting the domestic affairs of the country that made Mexico a Third World nation. . . (Read more at http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=12082.)

Hispanic Enemies in Our Midst
Hispanic Enemies in Our Midst
Toward the end of a 5 minute rant, a Hispanic speaker at a rally for La Raza reveals the philosophical underpinnings of the La Raza movement when he says, “Our enemy is capitalism, imperialism.”
If that sounds like a line from a speech by Cuba’s Fidel Castro or by Venezuela’s Communist despot, Hugo Chavez, it very well could be. However, this speech was not being delivered on the streets of Havana or Caracas but on the leafy campus of UCLA and the Hispanic teacher is preaching revolution.
See and hear the entire 5 minute tirade against America here: http://tiny.cc/ejeq6
La Raza is Spanish for the Race or the People, the Chicano, Mexican, and mestizo people who inhabit much of America’s Southwest and West and are scattered throughout the rest of the country, and numbering some 40 million, according to the speaker. He considers them all forces of “the northern front” in a war to re-conquer all of the “stolen” lands of the mythical Aztlan.
Human Events refers to La Raza and its subsidiary organization MEChA as . . .

Mexicans in America: Tercera Parte: Criminal Activities
Mexicans in America: Criminal Elements
Yesterday’s installment of this re-published series focused on Aztlan, the mythical place; today’s Part Three deals with the criminals in that very real place, the United States.
Mexicans, El Salvadorans, Guatemalans, any Hispanics and, indeed, most people of any nationality are fundamentally good people. At least, that’s what I firmly believe.
I’ve also said that if I were in their positions of poverty and deprivation and if I had the opportunity to sneak into another country which happened to be rich by my standards, I probably would do it. If that were the only way I could provide for my family, as illegal as it may be, I’d give it a shot and risk arrest, deportation, and imprisonment, though imprisonment would be rare if I snuck into the United States.
Chances are, if I were apprehended for violating American immigration laws, I’d be fed a meal then packed off to my native country, enabling me to try, try, try again until I made it into the Land of the Gringos where I could earn some dollars to FedEx back home to be converted into pesos so that my wife and kids could eat and be a tad more comfortable.
Whether it would be via a restaurant job, a farm job, a factory job, I would consider myself, and my family, fortunate. I guess I’d pass at nannying, but who knows? . . .

Mexicans in America: Segunda Parte--MEChA
Mexicans in America: Segunda Parte--MEChA
Yesterday’s first installment of this re-published series focused on Aztlan, the mythical place; today’s Part Two deals with the movement called MEChA.
I’ve personally seen illegals in action and I can say that Mexicans, and most other Latinos, are damned hard workers.
Whether they arrived via wading across the Rio Grande or by running across the Sonoran or Chihuahuan Deserts, by being trucked in, or by any other means, their entrance onto our shores was not an easy one, in most cases. From the southwest they then migrated north and east and west and take jobs that Americans, we are told, don’t want, from farm laborers, to factory workers, to restaurant workers, even nannies.
If I were in their positions in their home countries, immersed in poverty and politically corrupt regimes, their families barely eking out existences in fetid cities and on dismal farms, I would probably do the same, that is, illegally enter that rich nation of the gringos, work hard, live meagerly, and ship bundles of American dollars back home to help keep their loved ones alive. . .

Mexicans in America: Primera Parte--Aztlan
Mexicans in America: Primera Parte--Aztlan
. . . “MEChA, an acronym for the separatist Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan, or the Student Movement for Aztlan, has chapters in ninety-percent of California’s high schools and colleges. Their stated goal is to re-claim America’s Southwest and other areas for Mexico and to re-establish the kingdom of Aztlan, the mythical place of origin of the Aztecs, “after they emerged from the bowels of the Earth through seven caves.” (Quoted from Aztlan.net. That MEChAn website indicates it is “published in Los Angeles, California USA (Aztlan).” Incidentally, the national symbol for MEChA is a fierce eagle wielding a machete and a stick of dynamite.”
