The Southwest USA when part of Mexico was very poorly administered. Actually, California was practically a nation of its own. As for Mexico, it was subject to the dictatorial whims of the likes of Santa Anna. Even many/most Mexicans living in the Southwest couldn't stand the Mexican government.

The deal is that the MeCha folks want to negotiate "limited sovereignty" for Aztlan (Southwest USA) and make it sound oh so reasonable. It won't surprise me if they even try to get UN backing for this. And if the USA is ever so STUPID as to grant something called "limited sovereignty" to AZTLAN (SW USA), they will go for FULL sovereignty while making it again sound like the reasonable course with the usual propaganda about self-determination. This is no big secret. You can read it in their material.

I'm glad to see someone else was as offended as we were by her remarks.

My husband and I both are just sickened by her arrogance, and ignorance.

I see you caught another part of it that we found very offensive. I mean How dare we call it America?!!! There are so many America's.. sheesh.. this young woman has a masters, and that makes her smarter than us?

While we all recognize the many continents of the america's.. our Pledge mentions America!! Next she will be advocating we get rid of the Pledge because it mentions "The United States of AMERICA". Or she will want us to re-write it to say "The United States which is one of the America's". I don't know.. I just know this whole e-mail was disgusting.

The reason why Cortes was able to conquer Mexico with an incredibly small force of Spaniards is that the Aztecs antogonized the other Indian tribes so much that they joined forces with the Spanish to defeat the Aztecs.

And after the turn the southwest into Nuevo Tijuana they'll be claiming that the Aztecs originally came from Ohio.

For your family's sake, I hope that Aryn doesn't end up with the same fate as Lori Berenson.  Her tactics may be different but the long term agenda is quite similar.

IMO

Is there any way to find out if your Niece is actually teaching this CRAP to her students? If so then she is guilty of misinformation. Oh, and do the PARENTS of her students know if she is teaching this Leftist garbage?

BTW, when I was in High School, one of my Spanish Teachers kept propagandizing us about how great Castro was. We kept asking her over and over, if it was so great there, why doesn't she move there. (She was that RARE Cuban in Florida who thought Castro was great). Well, she did move there. And guess what happened? She was tossed in prison for being a spy the last I heard. Apparently the communists could never believe that a Cuban living in the USA would voluntarily return to live in Communist Cuba....unless they were a spy.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Hmmm.. perhaps once I respond to her,.. if she STILL tries to defend this extremist group, I will find a newspaper that is local. Or better yet.. start a mailing campaign to her HS.

Amazing story about the Castro lover returning to Cuba only to be jailed as a spy. I hope the story is all over the Net.

Does your niece teach her students that it is WRONG to call ourselves Americans? What's her problem? Is referring to ourselves as AMERICANS some sort of horrible jingoistic attitude that must be eliminated?

Where does she teach school? Perhaps I will do her a favor and send her maps of the US(not)A which has a shaded area in the Southwest labeled "Occupied Aztlan." I bet that would make her feel good.

Hey Registered! How about providing us a map of the US(not)A that shows "Occupied Aztlan" shaded out and clearly marked for this school teacher?

In a way you are right. She/my niece is aiding "rebels" imho,.. but the difference is she is doing it right here in AMERICA!! Under our own noses!!

This is a violent group, who was very cold and calculating when I saw them on the Bill O'Reilly show. I had never heard of them before. But once I read up on them.. I came here to FR and found even more info. Someone here at FR, is who directed me to the website for them, and then I found the list of all the High Schools and Colleges they are on. It was sickening.

Now this from my niece. Who professes to be educated and intelligent. She was arrogant and self righteous. I'm hoping to give her enough information to educate her with help from people here. So far there have been some excellent posts. I fully intend to use the information I see in posts here when responding to her. I don't know what else to do.. but I know Aryn. She is very dynamic and persuasive. If she is talking about this to her students, then she is helping this group. Alls anyone needs to do is read her e-mail to know she is extremely sympathetic to them.

I'm sick!!

Amazing story about the Castro lover returning to Cuba only to be jailed as a spy.

Cubans are usually pretty smart but this teacher was really clueless. I think the deal was that she never actually lived in Cuba while Castro was in power but had romanticized notions about the "Cuban Experiment" that she fell for. One day no teacher in our class and we were told she "defected" to Cuba (probably the only Cuban ever to do so). Later we heard she was tossed in jail after working as an interpreter for a period. What a dope!

I think I was the one that tossed her over the edge. We were doing something about two syllable words that should be divided so I yelled out "Castro." Then she tried to be good-natured about it and asked how to divide the word and I replied, "With a knife." That sort of sent her over the edge and she never returned to class.

p.s. Maybe she really was a spy. I mean I never before (or since) heard a Cuban in the USA say ANYTHING favorable about Castro.

I would have to think that she exposes her views/opinions to the students. She is a spanish teacher for a high school. I may have to try and find her schools superintendent, and perhaps we do need to do an e-mailing campaign. Let me think on it. But until then, I hope to put together a compilation of responses and send them to her. I also plan on posting any response I get back from her. I sent my e-mail regarding MEChA to her two months ago!! I JUST got the response back the day before yesterday. But I realllllllly want to respond to this e-mail.. and soon!!!

Teehee, correct you are. Every stop sign in my (till lately, mostly Cuban) neighborhood was covered with a great big 'Impeach Reno' bumper sticker when they snatched that kid in FL.

Thanks friend. I'm going to go lay down for a bit. Be back later. I appreciate you trying to help me get the word out on this. I hated how she turned Martin Luther Kings words around too. He was a "forward" person,.. not a person to want to live in the past with hate. How she interprets him is not "true" to MLK's memory imho. Be back later. Dang I hate this illness!!!

Here is something that will make your niece proud. It is from the AZTLAN Underground website. AZTLAN Underground is a leftwing music group from L.A.. Perhaps we should send your niece some of its CDs (plus the adulatory Che Guevara biography it promotes on its website.

BTW, that gun pointing at Uncle Sam's head doesn't look very "inclusive" to me:
