"America Libre: A novel by Raul Ramos y Sanchez"

"Time: The second decade of the twenty-first century. As the immigration crisis reaches the boiling point, once-peaceful Latino protests explode into rioting. Cities across the nation are in flames. Anglo vigilantes bent on revenge launch drive-by shootings in the barrios, wantonly killing young and old. Exploiting the turmoil, a congressional demagogue succeeds in passing legislation that transforms the nation’s teeming inner-city barrios into walled-off Quarantine Zones. In this chaotic landscape, Manolo Suarez is struggling to provide for his family. Under the spell of a beautiful Latina radical, the former U.S. Army Ranger eventually finds himself questioning his loyalty to his wife—and his country..."

Read the first chapter

From the Publisher How will today's immigration crisis shape our nation? This provocative novel set in the second decade of the 21st century poses a chillingly credible nightmare vision . . . a Hispanic liberation movement seeking to redraw the borders of the United States.

After years of anti-immigrant backlash, anger seethes in the nation's teeming barrios. The crowded streets bristle with restless youth idled by a deep recession. When undercover detectives in San Antonio accidentally kill a young Latina bystander during a botched drug bust, riots erupt across the Southwest. As the inner-city violence escalates, Anglo vigilantes strike back with barrio shooting rampages. Exploiting the turmoil, a congressional demagogue succeeds in passing legislation that transforms the nation's Hispanic enclaves into walled-off Quarantine Zones. Amid the chaos in his L.A. barrio, Manolo Suarez is out of work and struggling to support his growing family. Under the spell of a beautiful Latina radical, the former U.S. Army Ranger eventually finds himself questioning his loyalty to his wife - and his country.

Fast-paced and action-packed, America Libre is a wake-up call to the dangers of extremism - on both sides of this explosive issue.

I saw this at a local Barnes & Noble today. This guy has won all kids of awards and has gotten a huge amount of favorable press.

Although I haven’t yet read the book, I see its publication as one more piece of evidence that, for many Hispanics, white (”Anglo”) America — i.e. me and my family — is the enemy, and that in the end loyalty to ethnicity will trump everything else.

[fortunate sun]

Many years ago, I came to believe along with Jung’s hypothesis about racial memory, there also existed racial clairvoyance, just a subconscious tuning mechanism that picks up subtle changes in people. I think the rise in tribal tattoos was the catalyst.
Loyalty to the clan, above all, was the most important thing. Differentiating one’s self and one’s tribe from the others. I believe we can thank Obama for accelerating this movement.

[B-Chan]

In a prison riot, being a member of a white supremacist gang is the only alternative to becoming a victim of the black and Hispanic prisoners.

In an American race war, being a member of a white supremacist army will be the only alternative to becoming a victim of the black and Hispanic armies.

God forbid, of course.

[wac3rd]

The bubbled Liberals who think that the campus of Harvard, their Upper West side flat or their Hollywood/Beverly Hills mansion is “reality” will one day reap the rewards of their open borders, anti-gun, Communist agendas...

The babies they avoided/aborted in order for a larger home, nicer vacation and bigger wine collection will come to roost as the Latinos and Muslims who have 4-8 children will replace Jim and Margaret with their 1.8 children.

[B-Chan]

Yep. Every child is a vote for the future. If white people choose not to have children, then they are effectively voting to end the existence of white people.

Of course, many white people (including more than a few Freepers) will deny that skin color means anything, or that "races" exist, or that they themselves are white people. They are going to find out the hard way that, while they may not believe in white people, their black and Hispanic neighbors do.

As for me, I accept that 1) white people exist, 2) I am a white person, and 3) white people have a right to exist, just like people of other races do. But to say that out loud makes one a racist -- which is why I no longer care if I'm called a racist.

Sooner or later, we are all going to have to decide between '60s kum-ba-yah liberal idealism or the hard facts of reality as it was known prior to the civil rights movement. The longer one waits to decide, the more painful the decision becomes.

[B-Chan]

Yep, and only a bold Latino former Army Ranger and his wise Latina revolutionary woman can erase the Anglo menace and restore Texas (and America) to the utopia it was before the white man done came and stole it, mang.

I’m going to write my own novel about a wise German-American former Navy SEAL and his hot blond Nordic goddess who strike back against the black and brown hordes who have turned a once-peaceful land into a nightmare of crime and squalor OH WAIT THAT WOULD MAKE ME A RACIST HA HA NEVER MIND

[Eagles6]

No thanks.

I’ve just written my own novel. It’s set in the second decade of the 21st century poses a chillingly credible nightmare vision . . . a Hispanic liberation movement seeking to redraw the borders of the United States.

“AMERIKA ERWACHE!

“After years of affirmative action backlash, anger seethes in the nation’s quiet suburbs. The once-peaceful streets bristle with restless youth idled by hiring laws that favor non-whites over equally-qualified whites. When Hispanic “activists” in Austin accidentally kill a young American of German ancestry during a Cesar Chavez Day parade, riots erupt across the Southwest.

As the war of the colors escalates, Latino vigilantes strike back with suburban shooting rampages. Exploiting the turmoil, a congressional demagogue succeeds in passing legislation that transforms the nation’s huge illegal immigrant population into American citzens.

Amid the chaos in his small Hill Country town, Siegfried Weiss is out of work and struggling to support his growing family. Under the spell of a beautiful Nordic history professor/firearms instructor, the former U.S. Navy SEAL eventually finds himself questioning his loyalty to his former beliefs - and his country.

Fast-paced and action-packed, AMERIKA ERWACHE! is a wake-up call to the dangers of extremism - on both sides of this explosive issue.”

[wac3rd]

The Media/academia/literature/pop culture demonize Anglos as “Satan” who did nothing right, and oppressed/are opressing everyone.

If you live in America and you are of African descent, is the opportunity and lifestyle better here, or there?

Pose the same question to every non-European, and the answer is the same.

I hate the media and most politicians, on both sides.

Well our own Travis McGee has written not one, but THREE novels that tell the story of a future American dystopia where Latino thugs have seized entire states, FedGov has devolved into a authoritarian fascism and freedom fighters try to survive and thrive in the free states.

It's heady stuff, a great read, but it's unlikely to be featured at you local Barnes & Noble because it's not anti-white and anti-American propaganda.

Oh, to add some icing to the cake Travis really *is* and ex-Navy Seal.

Order all three from him directly or get 'em on Amazon.(click below)

The author Mathew Bracken (aka Travis) in his SEAL days.

I've gone ahead and tossed in a CWII ping to this message. It deserves it.

[MileHi]

It deserves it.

It does.

[DuncanWaring]

But wait!

It gets better!

(Regarding “El Nuevo Alamo”)

“In the sequel to America Libre, Hispanic insurgents are joined by conventional forces from the U.N. ...”

[Noumenon]

Just got the third one. Matt’s really refined his style and his narrative flows very well. He’s one of the very few who deal with the tough questions and the dark realities we’re likely to face. “Foreign Enemies and Traitors” is his best yet.

[Noumenon]

You have said what few dare. It may very well come down to choices like that.

[Griddlee]

“a beautiful Latina radical”

I guess that means the book is full of steamy sex scenes.

An ugly Latina radical wouldn’t sell many books.

[Travis McGee]

Gracias amigo.

[Travis McGee]

“In the sequel to America Libre, Hispanic insurgents are joined by conventional forces from the U.N. ...”

I feel like I've fallen through Alice's looking glass.

The bubbled Liberals who think that the campus of Harvard, their Upper West side flat or their Hollywood/Beverly Hills mansion is “reality” will one day reap the rewards of their open borders, anti-gun, Communist agendas...

I wonder, when that day comes and the mob is outside their house. Will they finally get it and see how foolish they were or as they and their family get dragged out into the street will they go down still blaming Bush and society for repressing these poor people.

From Publishers Weekly
Sanchez’s debut is a sweeping, intense novel of extremism, fear and consequences. In Los Angeles in the near future, tensions run high between Hispanics and Anglos, especially after the death of an innocent Latina bystander in Texas sparks nationwide riots. In need of a job, ex-Army Ranger Manolo Mano Suaraz joins La Defensa del Pueblo, started by wealthy Ramon Garcia to foster Hispanic unity in the face of Anglo violence. Despite his wife’s growing reservations, Mano and the group are able to turn Hispanic gangs into allies against a common enemy. As violence and fear escalate—and are manipulated—Quarantine Zones and camps are created to segregate Hispanics from the general population. Mano, who dedicated his life to patriotism, sees his own country turn on him because of his heritage, disregarding his value as an individual. Originally self-published, Ramos y Sanchez’s ambitious, cautionary tale poses questions without easy answers, but its flaw, ironically, is the lack of diversity, with all the characters being either Hispanic or Anglo.

Hmm. Now what do the cities in this list have in common?

And why is it “racist” to even ask the question?

[B-Chan]

When Obama was elected, I decided I was done with playing the great game of Racial Pretend. I’ll give any individual man a fair shake as long as he comes to me with open hands and good intentions, but I reserve the right to judge groups of men by the way I have seen them behave over my 44 years of life. If that makes me a racist, then iron my hood and call me George Lincoln Rockwell.

The one thing we dare not do is stoop to hatred. Loving one’s own kind does not require hatred of the Other. We can all live together on this earth — separately, if we must — only as long as we continue to recognize one another as human. If that fails, then it’s all-out war, and I think we all know which group would win in the end: the Ice People, the warriors with the coldest of hearts.

[DuncanWaring]

Between that and “The Coming Insurrection”, it’s good to have at least one guy on “our” side.

[Travis McGee]

I think there are more than one...

[DuncanWaring]

That’s good.

[wac3rd]

Because the secular owners of the Media know that every Schumer, Frank and Obama would be voted out and possibly tried for treason if more of ‘Joe and Jane Public’ knew the true nature of crime, poverty, achievement and the racial politics that keep the Democrats in power. The culmulation of denial, spin, ommission and downright fabrication has nrver been more true of the mainstream media and the Liberals, both in power and behind the scenes.

[B-Chan]

Lots more fun to be had at the author's blog

[redgolum]

Sir, the problem is that mankind is at its core a fallen, tribal, people. The Outsider (however that is defined) is almost always viewed as Non Human.

What scares me is that our country (which is NOT a nation) is about to split into many different parts. It won’t all be racial, but it will all be tribal.

When that happens, it will be a very savage time.

[Pyro7480]

And what do people who are mixed race like me (half Filipino) do in an instance like that?

[B-Chan]

Hell, I don’t know. I guess you guys will join forces with whichever side you feel most loyal to. I suspect most Asians will side with Whitey, since Asians have been singled out as targets by black and Hispanic people in past ethnic wars (see Riots, Los Angeles, Rodney King, Battle of Koreatown, 1992).

Please keep in mind that I’m not in favor of ethnic warfare, and may God forbid it ever comes to that. I’m just saying that, if current trends continue, it’s inevitable.

[Pyro7480]

Very true, B-Chan. I just hope (like you)that it doesn’t come to that, but if it does, they won’t ethnically-cleanse those who don’t pass their “racial purity” tests.

[B-Chan]

My guess is that, in any ethnic war, culturally compatible groups will unite. Thus it’s likely that, come the Race Wars, middle-class Asians and middle-class Euros will have more goals in common (protecting families, businesses, property) than they will have differences. Asian-White marriages usually last, after all — why not a grander form of “marriage”?

I also suspect that more than a few middle-class Hispanics (and even a few “oreos” from the black population, e.g. West Indians) will join forces with (or at least declare neutrality with) the European-American population.

Sad to say, Africans (diaspora or native) have few allies among other ethnic groups. They are also vastly outnumbered in the United States. I don’t see a future racial war going well for them. My guess is that the postwar America will be divided into Euro-Asian and Hispanic zones.

Again, God forbid!

Sad to say that this could happen although I think the greater divide is ideology, right vs. left, although as time goes on, the left is so far out of control and Marxist, they are becoming very evil so I daresay, we are headed towards a clash between the righteous and evil.

I have a lot more thoughts on all of this, the ideological as well as the ethnic angle too, I can go into great detail but I have work tomorrow so I can't go much further right now. This topic is interesting reading, albeit chilling. I'll have to save the lion's share for the weekend.

[Nowhere Man]

Please keep in mind that I’m not in favor of ethnic warfare, and may God forbid it ever comes to that. I’m just saying that, if current trends continue, it’s inevitable.

I keep thinking of the line from the 1983 movie "War Games," where Joshua the WOPR Computer says, "the only winning move is not to play," but there is a line out there somewhere, it could be a mile away, 10 miles away or even 100 miles away, I don't know where, but we are in a car headed towards it at 100 MPH and the way Obama is taking this nation, we could be kicking it up to NASCAR speed soon. This logic not only applies to your scenario but to my more ideological battle as well.

Like WOPR, I warplayed this game in my own mind, sometimes with my closest buddies I trust as well, and the scenarios and end games we come up with are not looking good at all, but it seems like we cannot stop the proverbial fast car from crossing that line in the sand.
