'Radical' Hispanic Group Makes Claims to Parts of the U.S. Is This Trouble Brewing?
There is a growing movement among some Hispanics to stand against those they see as "attacking" their race. People like Paul Harvey. You know, "the rrrrest of the story" guy. If you're wondering how Paul Harvey could be considered a "monster" who is "proud of the racist genocide that Europeans committed against the Indigenous people of this continent," and is a member of "the KKK of the radio airwaves," I am too. I suppose it is because they support the Minuteman Project designed to keep illegal aliens out of the Country.The question remains as to whether this is a growing threat to the people of the United States regarding a new terror group unrelated to Islamic radicalism or just a loud-barking, but largely toothless pup. Based on some of their comments, I wonder. The irony is that, though they claim to be victims of racism, they are basically a racist group, calling for racial segregation and supported by such organizations as The National Council of La Raza Charter School Development Initiative; Raza Development Fund, Inc.; and the Pasadena City College chapter of MeCHA, or Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan. FYI, La raza means, "The Race."
The group calls themselves the Mexica Movement and believes that they are the rightful claimants to parts of the U.S. which they intend on eventually taking back:"La Raza"...is a designation by many Mexicans who see themselves as part of a transnational ethnic group they hope will one day reclaim Aztlan, the mythical birthplace of the Aztecs. In Chicano folklore, Aztlan includes California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and parts of Colorado and Texas.Thus far, the group has only called for peaceful boycotts against such companies as the Disney company, for which "Adolph" Harvey works. According to their website, they only support peaceful change:
We are an organization that focuses on an educational solution to the injustices of European colonialism. We are for a non-violent solution, but we are aggressive in our demands for truth and justice.The potential problem lies in the fact that this group says it supports the government of the United States, but also believe that they will one day be able to reconstruct their nation, which stated earlier, includes a large part of the western United States. Notice the contradictory language? What happens if the "colonial Europeans" never "understand the crimes" to the extent that these people are not allowed to "reconstruct" their nation? Do they raise the stakes? We see the results of this kind of thinking right now in Israel (as well as other parts of the Middle East).
We support the constitution of the United States and are not for the overthrow of any of the governments of "North America". We know that under the present governments that one day it will be possible for our people and the colonial Europeans to understand the monstrosity of the crimes of European colonialism. We know that we can reconstruct our nation and our people as Nican Tlaca, as the Anahuac nation.
Reading further on their website, it is clear they are taking a stand against those who are calling for the deportation of illegal immigrants. However, they seem to believe that those individuals like Paul Harvey and Doug McIntyre (and any other "racist European") are against ALL Hispanics and want them all deported. That couldn't be farther from the truth. The stand many Americans have taken is only against those who are legally citizens of another Nation who have broken the rules/laws of this Country by sneaking in and illegally using American resources without permission. There is a vast difference.There is no doubt that there were unconscionable cruelties carried out by the settlers of the United States against the indigenous people of the North American continent. That sort of treatment should never have happened, regardless of who is doing it. Unfortunately, though, the reality is that most (if not all) of the nations of the world were settled through warfare. One group moved into a region, battles broke out and the strongest got the land and grew a particular nationality. This history is the main reason there are conflicts today throughout the world and why terrorists do what they do. They don't like the results and feel they have the moral superiority (regardless of their immoral methods) to take back what is rightfully (in their eyes) theirs.
My concern is related to how far this particular group will eventually go. The Mexicas claim to be peaceful, but acknowledge radicalism: "Yes, we are radical," says the Mexica Movement on its website. "More radical than you can imagine."
In the 21st Century context, those don't sound like words of peace.
