WE BEGIN, but do not end, with the sensational incident where the Obama White House, under Trumpian pressure, produced for public inspection the President’s “long form” birth certificate. I do not know how successful I will be in my attempts to navigate the journey, but I think it’s important to move from an immediate feeling [...]
WE RETURN with a call for action! The DREAM Act is up for a vote. Despite the fact that as usual, politicians play cynical games of expediency with people’s lives, there is cause for enthusiasm and happiness. So get on that phone! Also featuring the vaunted political Beer Test.
GIVE ME THE WIND, the water, and the touch of someone close. And give me stories. Stories of clear-eyed humans, of paths lined with golden wheat that sways in the sun, trod by brave souls undertaking important journeys.
SEMANTIC GAMES DO NOT MAKE CHANGE. What a person stands for, acts for, works toward, and feeds is what and who they are. Given the dodging games and general misunderstanding of the terms Racism and Racist, are there clearer ways to assess and describe what harm someone is aiding, or what justice they are fighting for? Yes.
NOBODY WAS IN DOUBT, and that’s the kind of town it is. A town where even the police collude to hide the murder of Mexicans, because it might besmirch the reputations of high school football stars if people knew they were cold blooded murderers. But truth has a way of prying open even the tightest of locked doors.
PEOPLE LIKE LOU DOBBS and William Gheen only care about violent environments when they suffer. Clearly, immigrants and Latinos getting killed or hurt matters none to them.
I’M TRYING TO IMAGINE what the GOP strategy is anymore when it comes to our nation of many peoples….
Let’s visit CNN, where talking about the “diverse experiences and challenging issues facing Latinos” today is about everything Latino except the very most pressing issues, such as the climate of hate that is giving white supremacists a wink and a nod as they bring violence upon us.
SOON, CNN WILL BE BROADCASTING their Latino in America special, as if they don’t contribute to the animosity and eventual murder that finds its way to our communities through the furrowed mind and curling lips of well-established Racist and hatemonger Lou Dobbs.
THE REPUBLICANS USE THEIR RADICAL BASE for fuel. The Democrats marginalize their radical base. The GOP operates on philosophies that can allow for greed and harm to the overall social body. The Democratic party has a much more ideal image…but do they believe in it themselves?
ON MY WAY TO THE STORE TODAY, I tried to kill a small bird. Don’t hate! The GOP will set you straight. But let me start at the beginning because the end is tragic. O, If only I possessed the ability to base my feelings on an understanding of the world, instead of being a human zero-sum kneejerk reaction…like Jeff Sessions (R) of Alabama.
THEY BESEECH THE WISE LATINA TO SOOTHE THEIR TREMBLING AND WOUNDED EGOS. Like petulant babies they repeatedly, almost to the point of absurdity, demand she confess her irrational temperament. And throughout it all cannot see the irony.
THE WEINER FAMILY makes its monies from selling hate to the masses; hate pointed and aimed at immigrants, queers, Obama, liberals, and a host of others. It’s a savage and soulless way to make a living—especially when at the same time you are raking in cash from the same people you abuse thus.
TUESDAY, President Obama announced Sonia Sotomayor as his pick to replace Supreme Court Justice David Souter. Sotomayor could be the first Latina appointed to the Supreme Court. Predictably, attacks and slurs from the Right are already flying.
THE MOMENT that the news of the “Swine Flu” hit the wires, it was easy to predict what the anti-immigrant faction would have to say about it. This particular cadre of caustic and crazed voices are so locked into their views that their contributions are unnecessary in a dialogue that preferences truth.
House of Nezua
