Wednesday night, armed Mexican gunment stormed a desert entry point along the U.S. / Mexico border, forcing a National Guard to retreat. After the gunman took over the entry point, they retreated back into Mexico. This is a direct attack on the sovereignty of the United States. What will it take before our leaders in Washington take our border seriously?
Quote of concern:
"What this means is a transfer of power, it means control, it means who's going to influence. And it is the young people, the people who are now moving to develop an agenda for the 21st century. They are really going to be in a position to really make the promise of what the Chicano movement was all about in terms of self-determination, in terms of empowerment, and even in the terms of the idea of an Aztlan!"*
