VETERAN’S DAY. It means many things to many people, and all that can shift in a minute depending on which side of the sand you are on. But the quality in a human that causes them to sacrifice for other humans is an enduring, memorable, and crucial one.
THESE ARE THE DAYS in which we gather all our family together again, when we leave a path open, and a way for those who have moved on from the material plane, and yet who will never leave our hearts.
IN THIS “SECOND GOLD RUSH,” where it seems every store, site, and organization is moving forward quickly to access “The Latino Market,” and keeping in mind the arrival of Latino/Hispanic Heritage Month, it seems a good time to consider the question: What does it mean to be “Latino” today? Another chapter in the News With Nezua narrative.
I AM NOT AN ALTRUIST. Nor am I here to convince you that I’m a Nice Guy. Nor to claim I am a champion of immigrants. If it needs to be made clearer to aid in expectation or understanding, the story and reasons behind my particular hand en la lucha are far simpler.
¡FELIZ DIA DE LOS MUERTOS! With love and thoughts y velas for Maria da la Luz “Lucha”, Alejo, Juanita, Chente, Beto, Richie, Arthur, Felipe Emilio, Isabelle….
Soy Indio y Euro, soy mestizo, soy Latino. I am the conqueror and the conquered, I am the field and the worker and the hungry consumer; I am all these things, but my heritage is and will always be la lucha. And that is why I am here many days. For mi gente are still in the fields. It is not a thing of the past.
