News With Nezua | Hunted
THE NATIONAL MOOD AROUND IMMIGRATION grows darker, as the government neglects to champion the vulnerable undocumented population. Racists and White Supremacists show no such hesitance to engage the issue, and the ground is defaulted to them by a lack of legislative action as politicians worry about elections and polls and have forgotten their own humanity. Highlighted this week: The Utah Hit-list.
News With Nezua vids first appear Monday mornings at La Frontera Times. Wednesdays they show up at UMX, as well as in a dim setting at The XOLAGRAFIK Theater. Link to (truncated) YouTube version here.

Watch out for one armed bandits in Begas… Dont expect anything good to happen until these jerk politicians stop playing their games.
Whats dangerous is these armed rednecks when nobodies watching they are subject to murder someone. Everybody needs an Identity card?? Then the Government can control people even more… You want to take a bus to Fargo? Wheres yout ID Card? You forgot it? Your under arrest. Yeh, take away some more rights. I’m sure many of these jerks would like to cancel the Miranda Act… “it ties the policemens hands from doing their duty”… Which use to be…Beat a confession out of any stranger coming through town.
read this Document from the Mexican Revolution (1912)
Many of the most important ideas in the Casa were expressed by the Luz Anarchist group in the Manifesto Anarquista del Grupo Luz. The Luz group, led by Juan Francisco Moncaleano, was to fill the most important posts of the Casa after it’s founding. The Manifesto’s ten points included:
1. To Enlighten an enslaved and ignorant people.
2. To overthrow the tormentors of mankind: clergy, government and capital.
3. To not serve the ambitions of any political charlatan, because no man has the right to govern another.
4. To make known that all men are equal because they are all ruled by the same natural laws and not by arbitrary ones.
5. To demand explanations from the opulent rich regarding their wealth, from the government regarding its lying authority, and from the representatives of the bandit god for his celestial powers.
6. To devastate the social institutions generated by torturers and loafers.
7. To gain freedom for the enslaved worker.
8. To use truth as the ultimate weapon against inequality.
9. To struggle against fear, the terrible tyrant of the people.
10. To march forward towards redemption, toward the universal nation where all can live with mutual respect, in absolute freedom, without national political father figures, without gods in the sky or the insolent rich.45
“For the first time, Mexico’s proletariat acted in a definitive manner on the stage of history, and the urban workers were mobilized for the most part by the anarchists.”46
While strikes were certainly used, and they were often effective, the Anarcho-syndicalists also used education as a weapon against the system they despised. Rafael Pez Taylor, of the Escuela Racionalista (a school based on the ideas of Spanish Anarchist Francisco Ferrer), said: “…all one has to do is enlighten the soldier in order for him to cease being one.”47 In fact, education, based on mutual aid, was not only an ideal, but was used very successfully to recruit workers into the Anarcho-syndicalist movement. They organized schools, like the Escuela Racionalista, in which they taught illiterate workers to read. This was very popular and was effective in reaching out to the working-class, who were then exposed to these new ideas.
Seems like pretty smart dudes to me… Anarchy works…
keep the faith amigo…
i’m down…keep me updated, i got faith.
good stuff as always, nezua. hope you are enjoying your trip.
This is really scary. It is very similar to the kind of witch-hunt we associate with the McCarthy era in the US (which also involved attacks on ethnic groups thought to be communists and others besides the obvious political targets). There is even a list! These people who released this are obviously showing their racism by releasing names of even citizens who they assume are ‘Illegals’. This could help to counteract main stream media stories about how this really is only about breaking immigration law. They probably released these names and personal information in the hopes that vigillantees would do something to these people if the government refused, and that is a serious danger. There are freaking NAZIS patrolling parts of the border! Does anyone really doubt what sort of interests they have in this matter? And the last time I checked the Arizona law is still going into effect at the end of the week. This is really getting to a level I wouldn’t have believed a few months ago.
One thing I want to say is that this could have repurcussions beyond just racist attacks on Latin@s, not that that isn’t bad enough. This is already starting to (at least it seems to me) increase bigotry against all the oppressed groups in America, especially other people of color. Increasing one form of bigotry, especially one form of racism, will likely lead to increases in others. I hope more people start to understand this and try to work together and support immigrants. Solidarity is powerful.
as nick r said, ‘this is really scary’…it is. as you wrote, ‘Racists and White Supremacists show no such hesitance to engage the issue, and the ground is defaulted to them by a lack of legislative action…’ speaking of, i heard arpaio is erecting more tents…
how do we the people with a healthy heart unify our voice/power to overcome and stop the hate and the actions of those with no heart (arpaio/haters), a sick heart (politicians/haters), or those with no common sense, (tea bagger types/haters)? how does the unified field of consciousness turn to manifestation for the better way (giving legal status to illegal peoples)?
monetary profit only, has to stop being a consideration/motive when it comes to a better world. form will follow function and all will prosper with implementing such direction as the eightfold path for example, would take us. it is not rocket science huh.
anyway…thank you again for doing your part most excellent…thanks for fighting the good fight.
you too be safe, be strong nez.
peace, one love, and pass it on.
