MEChA, which stands for Movimieto Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (Chicano student movement)

I can't read Spanish, but I'd bet anything "Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan" means more than "Chicano student movement", as the article states! I'd bet it means something like "Chicano Students of Aztlan", or somesuch thing.

So, why the lousy translation in the original article? Is the writer trying to hide something, or is it merely gross incompetence?
