Forty years ago, as Hawkins and Anderson observe, the most prominent Hispanic civil rights organization the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) supported English as the common national language and assimilation as a citizenship goal. Membership in LULAC was limited to American citizens and its code stated: Respect your citizenship; honor your country, maintain its traditions in the minds of your children; incorporate yourself in the culture and civilization. Today, as a result in part of the huge financial investment Ford has made in the immigration lobby, no major Hispanic civil rights organization subscribes to these views.
There was a LULAC chapter at my high-school, they we not about citizenship, nor assimilation with the American culture. Believe me, I know first hand.
