BROWN KINGDOM
Two rather interesting posts out of Brown Kingdom: Why is it that you hear mexicans refer to the “whole” United States as LOS?? and To be Chicano means to have learned of respect, to have practiced understanding, and to have been moved by social injustice to the point where the person sees it as his…

datos del here and now
A qué vergas putos hijos de la chingada, quién fue el puto que dejo mi link en un foro de fútbol? Pinches racistas hijos de la chingada. Anoche soñe el miedo que me carga el colectivo, aquellos miedos que hacen que abra los ojos a medianoche, aquellos temores que hacen que despierte y me de…

Joto power ese!
I know some in Aztlán, our own extreme right, despise the idea of homosexualism or marimachas, as forming a part of Aztlán though am not persuaded by any of their arguments.

Apparently, all democrat things considered does not include what democrats are doing, in terms of immigration, at Daily Kos. Mexican newspaper El Universal is hailing John Kerry a heroe for presint’s Fox number one cause: immigration to keep low paying jobs at work in Mexico while syphoning skilled and dissenting voices to the US.
