In Tucson Unified School District there is a clash between some schools and district officials over the Mexican-American studies program. Outgoing state schools superintendent Tom Horne believes the district is breaking a state law aimed at quashing programs “designed primarily for pupils of a particular ethnic group.” Horne is leaving his office to assume duties as state attorney general, and he believes the Mexican-American studies program “violates the law.” The Arizona Republic said the new superintendent John Huppenthal can decide whether to cut state funding by 10 percent—$15 million—if school officials refuse to cancel the program.
The newspaper said the law not only prohibits studies “aimed at certain ethnic groups,” but it also “bans classes that advocate overthrow of the U.S. government, promote resentment toward a race or class or people, or advocate ethnic solidarity.”
On the Tucson Unified website, pages announcing a conference held by the Mexican American studies department reflect an academic “focus” on matters like “Advocating for and providing curriculum that is centered within the Mexican American/Chicano cultural and historical experience” and “Advocating for and providing curriculum that is centered within the pursuit of social justice.”
Numerous political groups push similar ideology. Among them are Mexica Movement and National MEChA. Such groups believe the U.S. does not have a legitimate claim to part or all of states such as Texas, Arizona, California and others. Websites for such groups single out “white America” in a hostile manner and claim there is a “civil war.” One website carries the slogan, “Europeans are the illegals since 1492.” Groups that stress ethnic superiority often carry flags of other countries at protests in the U.S. and do not seek assimilation into American society but aim at maintaining ethnic and cultural purity.

kill it now.
Which is Treason with a capital T.
Nothing wrong with defunding the Mexican terrorists. We owe them nothing.
Nuke it from orbit.
It never ceases to amaze me how the US taxpayer continues to fund Mexican fascist groups hell-bent on the destruction of the United States.
Could you imagine the US taxpayer funding German, Italian and Japanese fascist groups hostile to the US in the public school system during the 30’s?
The American people would not have tolerated it; in fact, if Mexicans were doing it then, there would have been a policy to swiftly kick these Mexican asses right across the border for their arrogance, hostility and ingratitude.
Proof positive that the “NEW IMMIGRANTS” are NOT immigrants, but rather temporary parasites here to live off of the hard work of others. There is NO intent to every become Americans, and no intent to ever proudly show their love and appreciation for their new country.
Generations of past immigrants thankfully embraced their new country, learned its language, its laws and its history, and even as they kept and cherished their memories of their original homeland they PROUDLY proclaimed, “Now I am an American.”
What we have now is a parasitic flood tide.
how ironic to teach children the glorious superiority of Mexico when any attempt to deport them there is treated as a human rights violation...
La Raza and most other anti-American groups are behind this changing of history. Don't let them get away with it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
indians savaged mexicans living in what is now the american southwest.
mexico was incapable of controlling the land.
the u.s. calvary arrived to protect mexicans, and they
flourished.
later, folliwng european anti-colonialist universities,
mexico claimed the american southwest.
Over two-thirds of Mexicans are descended from those Europeans. The rest, the indigenous Indians, are mostly marginalized and discriminated against by the majority Mexican society. A law banning official discrimination was only passed in 2001 and is not being enforced very hard.
But I guess that won't be in the textbook.
They'll say it was an illegal purchase, or that they were forced. These people say the Guantanamo Bay lease is invalid, and that the Lenape Indians were ripped-off over Manhattan (although in truth it was the Lanape who pulled off a great real-estate swindle).
LOL I agree. We should have assimilated with the Native Americans - then they could whine about how we raid their villages, rape their women and scalp their men. geesh!
Ron Gochez is a Los Angeles High School teacher, he has a video on youtube maybe 4 years old now where he is preaching his hatred towards America. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iybaDyMr1rs
This is my transcription:
“A revolutionary Mexican Organization”…” This is not just about Mexico, this is about a global struggle against imperialism and capitalism. But we know that where we now stand is stolen occupied Mexico. And the message that we bring if you want to bring a little bit more of a revolutionary context to this, why is it that these people? These frail racist white people want to keep us out of this country. It’s not simply because of the color of our skin, it’s not simply because they just want to exploit us, let me tell you why. Because on this planet right now, 6 billion people at the forefront of the revolutionary movement is La Raza.”…
…”We have a long history and example of our comondante Fidel Castro Ruiz, Caesar Hugo Chaves, Eduardo Morales, we got Brazil, Equator, you name it, we are nine, nine ??? governments in Latin America right now, and they know something that a one young Argentine cockroach said, it was called a domino theory, and he knew that every single country would go revolutionary. One after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other.”
“So what do they fear? They know that every single country, they know that we no longer will fall for these lies called borders, they know that a Salvadorian, that a Guatemalan and a Nicaraguan and a Mexicano, there is no damn difference, we are all one people. So with that in mind, we see our selves, all of us here, as the Northern front of a Latin American revolutionary movement. There are more than 40 million of our people north of the Rio Grande. That means to them there is 40 million revolutionaries north of the border inside the belly of the beast. So when you think about why do they want to kick us of all people out, that’s why”.
“They know that we now know the truth. They know that we are La Raza, we’re professionals, we are educators, we are revolutionary students, what does that mean? We are just a regular culture anymore, we are a culture of revolutionary spirit. And that’s the fear.”
“So with that being said, I want to leave you with this, as a revolutionary and with revolutionary context, let us be clear about one thing, our enemy is not the minutemen, quote me, our enemy is not the minutemen, because the minutemen are not the ones who have killed over four thousand, six hundred people at those borders, our enemy is the same enemy as Hugo Chaves, that Hugo Chaves has, our enemy is the same enemy that keeps Africa poor, our enemy is the same enemy that keeps Asia poor, Our enemy is capitalism, imperialism.”
“And I’ll finish with this, I’ll finish with this to respect the time. If we are serious about making CHANGE, if you are serious about making CHANGE, let me tell you, the struggle will go on for many more years after we leave UCLA. Reading a book or writing a book, or teaching a class, that is not, that is not part of the movement. What you do 24 hours a day as a professional revolutionary, that is what is going to lead our people and our people to liberation. Viva La Raza.”
Ping!
Irredentism, revanchism, mass immigration, and political correctness are a toxic brew.
