TAKE A LITTLE TRIP, take a little trip, take a little trip with meeee! AND with Tony and Carlos. Into la cocina, down México way, and to hear the story of Carlos and his familia, how he crossed the border, and an “American Success Story” if I ever heard one.
WE ALL LOOK TO THE NEW SEASON of politics with hope and with relief and many of us, joy. But as much as we want to simply admire the new bloom and leaf and ray of sun, let us remember (and Never Forget) that you do not plant a garden in active rot if you want a healthy harvest.
EPISODE DOS of this new vloglicious conversation wherein Nezua finishes talking about the changes which see us into 2009 here at The Unapologetic Mexican blog. Much delicious coffee went into the making of this video, and probably should be sipped while watching. It wouldn’t hurt.
FOR A TIME THERE WAS CORN and there were chiles, and there were handmade tortillas, and there were piñatas. And there was Guadalupe. I remember her image laid on a cut slice of wood and varnished over. I remember her looking down from the wall. And I remember how kind she felt to me…with her gold, and her aqua, and her eyes.
THE LATEST BOOK I’ve illustrated could benefit from a few more reviewers who are willing to post on the book or otherwise trade a review copy for some publicity and the time it takes to read through it and feel it out.
THE TAKEOVER STRIKE has long been a function of Latin American worker solidarity. Occupying schools and workplaces when injustice is doled out is a regular function south of the border. We’ve seen it from Puerto Rico to México, from Tlaltelolco to Oaxaca. Today, we see it in Chicago, USA…
IT WOULDNT BE WORTH MY TIME to highlight yet one more slanderous, lazy, slimy, fictionalized piece of anti-Mexican propaganda but for the fact that it comes at such an egregious time and under such a prestigious banner…
I CAN’T THINK of a more uplifting message than this: Put your time, energy, and heart into something and the energy will return. It will grow, it will propagate, it will continue. And this lesson can be found in events both small and large.
MALVERDE: La luz esta en saber, en el poder entender. Que mientras no habres los ojos no vas a poder ver…
A CRUCIAL COMPONENT to undoing misogyny and sexism is revealing to men that we are sold an illusion. The “man” they would have us be is an unnatural and dangerous one. It is a fanged, bereaved, lie. It is the shifting shape of oppression with a wolfskin slung over its eyes. It is a shroud.

TOO MANY in the USA cannot help but be poisoned by our toxic MSM and its festering monologue. It is a media that cares not for humans, but instead for profits and fitting in with the power flow. Let’s be reasonable: almost 100,000 hungry children wandering and lost cannot be helped by laser-equipped fences and fancy phrases.
AS HISTORY IN THE USA pointedly picks favorites, leaving some of us out of the books and movies and stories and truths, it is very important for raza to continue to tell our own stories through art, poetry, song, and performance. This is one of the reasons that arte is so integral to nuestra cultura.
A revolution without capes and masks is a revolution not worth having! Happy Halloween to all my heathen, pagan and ghostly amigos! Here’s hoping you don’t wake esta noche only to find a bloody screaming man under your bed.
THE SANCTUARY EDITORS: Showing the vitality and importance of voices from outside the mainstream two-party political paradigm, Congresswoman McKinney puts forth not only a strong understanding of the complexities of the Immigration Issue, but also a vision of real-world solutions with a refreshing willingness to confront the broader social and economic realities which undergird international migration.
