All of you guys are lumping in the NCLR, MALDEF, and even M.E.Ch.A. with the racism of "La Voz de Aztlan", an organization disavowed by all mainstream Chicano PACs.

I know that they all look like little brown people to you, but get your facts straight.

We lump all of these organizations together because they all practice racism.

They are PACs, and membership is not limited to people of Mexican descent.

The Cuban-American National Foundation, the Polish-American clubs across the country, the Sons oif Italy, thre Knights of Columbus are all ethinically formed organizations.

Now, La Voz de Aztlan, they are racist in word and deed.

"We lump all of these organizations together because they all practice racism."

One last thought about your statement.

You, like so many others here, have allowed actual racists to define racism as being racially-oriented.

People like Charlie Rangel, Sheila Jackson Lee, and Maxine Waters would jump on a soapbox and cry "racism" if anyone ever dared to create a Congressional White Caucus, and lead a filibuster by the Congressional Black Caucus in the halls of American Justice to denounce it. They have convinced you that anything related to racial or ethnic pride must be inherently racist...it isn't.

It isn't racist to be proud of your Hispanic heritage, or your Germanic heritage, or your Swedish heritage, or your black heritage.

It is racist to denigrate others based on their racial and/or ethnic identity.

It isn't racist to be proud of your black heritage, it is racist to believe that all white people are inherently evil.

Be proud of your ethnicity..whatever it happens to be.
