La Raza Unida
Party’s National
Convention
40 Years Later
By: Herman Baca
Forty years ago on Labor Day
weekend (Sept 1-5, 1972), a call was
issued by Reyes Lopez Tijerina,
Rodolfo “Corky” Gonzales, and Jose
Angel Gutierrez, (two months before
the presidential election, Richard
Nixon and George McGovern), for a
national convention in El Paso, Texas.
The purpose; to create a national political party for Chicanos… La Raza
Unida Party (LRUP).
Numerous individuals from San Diego joined thousands of others from
thru-out the U.S. to journey to El Paso
to attend and partake in the convention. At that time Chicano movement
activists perceived the convention as
being the most important political
event to be ever be organized by
Chicanos in the history of the U.S.
Over 3,000 Chicanos from 18 states,
the majority from the Southwest, but
some as far away as Washington,
D.C., Maryland, Rhode Island, Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin and Nebraska convened at the historic national convention to discuss strategy
and policy to create the new national
Chicano political party.
The convention represented at that
time the broadest based number of
Chicanos to attend the largest political gathering of our people in U.S.
history. Aside from addressing the
creation of a national political party,
attendees also discussed issues/problems that have historically affected
our people in the U.S. The principal
reasons for the massive turnout and
convening of the convention (I believe) was because of the deep historical anger felt by Chicanos against
both the Democratic and Republican
parties. The pent up anger was especially virulent against the Democratic Party. A party that our people
had supported and blindly voted for,
since the 1930 depression era election of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Anger
was even more virulent against the
white controlled Republican Party
that was anathema to our people for
its historic racism against Mexicans,
blacks, other minorities and working
people.
Chicanos used to politically state
that, “for Mexicans, Blacks, other
minorities, or working people to
vote Republican, was tantamount
to a chicken voting for Colonel
Sanders,” and “Chicanos always
put Democrats first, and they always us put us last!”
To understand the call for the creation of LRUP in the U.S., one has
to review Chicano political history.
One has to remember that outside of
Texas and New Mexico (that have
elected Governors and U.S. Senators) that up until 2012 Chicanos have
only been politically involved for 52
years, while Anglos have been involved for hundreds of years! California and other states with large
Mexican American populations had
no statewide or local political representation. Those were the reasons for
the Mexican American Political Association (MAPA) being organized in
1960 by Humberto “Bert” Corona, Ed
Roybal and Juan Quevedo. At its inception MAPA was nonpartisan,
with objectives of electing MexicanAmericans to political offices, caring
out voter registration drives, bringing
out the vote during elections, and endorsing Democrats, Republicans,
Peace and Freedom, etc., candidates
for public offices.
In 1968 when most of us in San
Diego and other areas of California
became involved politically with the
Chicano movement, it was thru
MAPA. In 1968 we in National City
(NC), CA organized a MAPA Chapter. However, even at that time the
political facts were that after eight
years of MAPA being in existence,

A dream that keeps growing
San Ysidro Health Center opens King-Chavez Health Center
By Pablo Jaime Sáinz
In 1969, a group of immigrant
women got together to try to bring
quality health care service to the
underserved community of San
Ysidro.
Their dream was to make health
care available to everyone there, no
matter if they had health insurance
coverage or not. What began as a
small goal, became the San Ysidro
Health Center, one of the largest community clinic systems in San Diego
County.
Today, more than 40 years later,
the dream of those women continues
to expand with the opening of the
King-Chavez Health Center, which
will serve residents in southeastern
San Diego.
On Friday, September 7, 2012 San
Ysidro Health Center will celebrate
the grand opening of the new center,
located at 950 South Euclid with a
Community Open House from 3 p.m.
to 6 p.m.
The event will begin with a ribbon
cutting ceremony attended by Congressman Bob Filner, Assemblyman
Ben Hueso, County Supervisors Greg
Cox and Ron Roberts; Mayor of San
Diego Jerry Sanders; and City of San
Diego Council President Anthony

Young.
“As Supervisor for the First District, which includes Southeastern San
Diego, I cannot wait for the opening
of the King-Chavez Health Center,”
Supervisor Cox said. “In this medical
desert where people are without in-
surance and cannot afford health
care, I am pleased to see San Ysidro
Health Center expand their services
to meet the demand in a way that
respects the cultural and linguistic diversity of this community. With medical, dental, mental health, counseling,
pediatrics, lab and radiology services
under one roof, it is essentially a onestop shop for the community.”

The Significance of the Chicano Moratorium
By Jimmy Franco Sr.
“Either you’re part of the solution
or you’re part of the problem.”
-Eldridge Cleaver
Many will ask what is the purpose
of commemorating the Chicano
Moratorium each year in August. The
original National Chicano Moratorium
march and protest against the Vietnam War was held in East Los Angeles on August 29, 1970. Two previous smaller marches took place in
L.A. in order to organize for the larger
August 29, 1970, national march.
Other build-up marches were also
organized in San Francisco, Oakland,
Fresno and other cities.
The culminating march and protest
that was held on August 29, drew over
25,000 participants from various parts
of the country.
This significant event was an historical and political watershed for
Chicanos as their emerging role and
voice in this society had finally asserted themselves in a bold and proud
manner which overturned the conservative politics of a previous generation. The importance of the Chicano
Moratorium is that it has now become
a part of our tradition and culture and
should be commemorated as such
each year with a sense of pride and
The August 29, 1970, National Chicano Moratorium drew over 25,000 people to East L.A. with slogans
of Chicano power and self-determination and was followed by other marches
recommitment. This pride and legacy
requires a renewed dedication to continue the political, social and cultural
activism that is aimed at promoting
progress within our communities.
To just sit around and simply be
proud cannot replace such an activism as new problems and issues that
affect us need to be engaged and resolved with concrete solutions. Attempting to retreat and escape into our
own little world and pretend that these
problems will go away is no solution
and makes the situation become even
Journalist Ruben Salazar: a man of principle and one of the four
martyrs of the Chicano Moratorium protest marches
worse. If these problems impact one
of us, they will eventually impact all of
us as they require a united and active
response.
What level of progress have we
achieved since 1970?
The Vietnam War was ended due
to domestic pressure that was applied
on the government in the form of
massive protests throughout the
country in which Chicanos played a
key role. There has been some
quantitative progress made in the
level of civil rights achieved since
1970, but it has fallen far short of full
social and political equality. Today,
many of these hard-won rights are
being slashed by the regressives and
outright racists. This situation is especially true for the majority in the
barrios whose progress has stagnated. The recent unrest and clashes
in Anaheim California and other areas that have resulted from a deeply
ingrained social and political inequality are an example of this continuing
second-class status. The blatant discrimination and promotion of stereotypes that still exist within the Anaheim schools is reminiscent of the
19502s or worse and needs to be totally eliminated.
Many of the activists who participated in the 1970 Moratorium have
since moved on to new and better
lives while some are still active despite the ups and downs of the political movement. Most political movements do not continue at a consistently high level as they have an ebb
and flow nature to them that is determined by objective conditions. However, what is needed is a consistent
and unified response to actively confront any new violations of our basic
rights. Many old problems have been
resolved since the original Moratorium, some issues still persist, while
new ones have arisen. To state that
nothing has changed is an incorrect
and static way of thinking as change
is constant. We must be able to adapt
accordingly with our tactical activities to confront the new conditions
and issues that we face. Looking
back, one particular and serious
shortcoming that emerged out of the
post 19702s was an insufficient
amount of training that was given to
the next generation of young activists in order to ensure the political
consistency and leadership of these
struggles.
The significance of the Chicano
Moratorium: nostalgia or political activism?
The cultural importance of the
Chicano Moratorium lies in its tradition of being involved in the social,
political and cultural work that improves our communities and the continuation of the struggle for basic civil
rights and equality. The location of the
1970 National Chicano Moratorium
in East Los Angeles does not make it
only a local tradition as the site was
not the important element. This historical event and rich cultural legacy
belong to all Chicanos and Latinos
who embrace its proud symbolism and
lessons of struggle that further the
demand and quest for social justice.
The tradition and legacy of the
Chicano Moratorium is something

When we got older, we did

before then my mother would
take everything we earned. As
we got older we had more interest in money, so we would
keep half of it. We were getting our own pay, and my older

working in the vineyards. I
worked for three months in the

going to school during the
week. They didn’t give us
much work and school came
pretty easy. I would like to think
that I am a good student. I took
predominately AP and Honors
classes, and got good grades
— mostly A’s and B’s. I never
got any C’s.
I felt discrimination, not so
much because I’m from an
immigrant family, but because
I’m indigenous [Mixtec]. The
first time I was in second
grade, kids would call us
“Oaxaca.” Apparently that’s a
bad thing… they would think
of us as beneath them. Even
in the fields. For example, one
foreman divided the Oaxaqueños and the Mexicans. He
put the Oaxaqueños in the bad
fields and the Mexicans in the
fields with no weeds.
Everywhere we went — the
welfare office, the hospital —
we were always discriminated
against for being indigenous.
Spanish-speaking and Englishspeaking [people] would get
more information, because
they couldn’t communicate
with us [Mixtec speakers].
It would make the situation
better for the indigenous in
Santa Maria if [some of us]
were working in the system.

En las pasadas elecciones
primarias de June, en la contienda para el Cabildo de la
Ciudad de Chula Vista, Puesto
3, el retador Larry Breitfelder
recibió más votos que la actual regidora, Pamela Bensoussan.
Breitfelder recibió 38 por
ciento, mientras que Bensoussan el 33 por ciento.
Esta fue la primera vez en
la historia reciente que un
retador sale muy por delante
de un actual regidor en una
primaria en Chula Vista.
Mucha de la gente que
apoyó a Bensoussan durante
su elección en noviembre del
2008, se ha desilusionado con
ella. Algunos dicen que sólo es
demócrata en nombre, pero en la
práctica se ha aliado a la alcaldesa
republicana, Cheryl Cox.
Cuatro años después de la
elección de Bensoussan, la
gente quiere ver un cambio
verdadero. De acuerdo a
Breitfelder, eso es lo que lo
convirtió en un candidato
atractivo.
“Hay mucha insatisfacción
con la regidora”, dijo Breitfelder. “Especialmente de personas que confiaron y eligieron
a Pamela Bensoussan al
puesto en el 2008”.
Breitfelder es un empresario de Chula Vista que está
corriendo por el puesto 3 del
cabildo de Chula Vista con un
objetivo muy concreto: “Creo
que tenemos que tener corazón
y tenemos que tener mucho
cuidado con nuestro dinero
para hacer la mejor labor
posible en cuidar de las
necesidades de la gente a largo
plazo”, dijo.
Hijo de una madre originaria
de Toluca, Breitfelder nació en
Tijuana y creció en Chula
Vista. (En la boleta, usará su
nombre completo, Larry Breitfelder Navas, rindiendo tributo
a su herencia mexicana.)
“Quiero que todos sepan
que feliz y orgulloso estoy de
mi herencia. Mi sentimiento
para la comunidad latina está
en mi alma y mi sangre”, dijo.
Como propietario de una
pequeña empresa, Breitfelder
dijo que en el ayuntamiento él
peleará por otras pequeñas
empresas, ya que las considera
el alma de la ciudad.
“El ayuntamiento escucha a
las grandes empresas”, dijo.
“Ahí es donde está el dinero
para los políticos. Necesitamos
trabajar arduamente con las
empresas que invertirán y
crearán empleos, no vender a
nuestra gente ni a nuestros
vecindarios y pequeñas empresas. En vez de ayudarlas,
la ciudad trata de destruir a las
pequeñas empresas”.
Cuando sea electo al cabildo, Breitfelder dijo que no
olvidará de donde viene.
“Si llegamos al futuro con
visión, valores y valentía, los
mejores días de Chula Vista
están delante de nosotros”,
indicó el candidato.

ELECTION 2012:
Breitfelder: “Chula Vista’s best days should be ahead of us”
Larry Breitfelder
By Pablo Jaime Sáinz
In the past primary in June,
in the race for the Chula Vista
City Council, Seat 3, challenger Larry Breitfelder received more votes than the
incumbent, Councilmember
Pamela Bensoussan.
Breitfelder got 38 percent,
against Bensoussan’s 33 percent.
This was the first time in
recent history that a challenger
has come in substantially ahead
of an elected incumbent
councilmember in a Chula Vista
primary.
Many people who supported
Bensoussan during her election
in November 2008, have become disillusioned with her.
Some say she’s only Democrat
in name, but in practice, she
has become an ally of Republican Mayor Cheryl Cox.
Although the race is nonpartisan, Bensoussan had run
as a community grass-roots
organizer and activist, in part
for her work at the Northwest
Civic Association of Chula
Vista.
But four year later, people
want to see real change. According to Breitfelder, that’s
what’s attractive about his candidacy and that’s the main reason he beat Bensoussan in the
primary.
“There is a hunger in Chula
Vista to move forward as
friends, to improve the quality
of life for families and individuals in our neighborhoods,” said
Breitfelder, a life-long Chula
Vista resident. “I have a long
history in Chula Vista of advocating for the interests of regular people. I talked of helping
small business so we have the
jobs and income to help our
neighborhoods, I also spoke of
being independent and not selling out. Based on my history, I
had credibility.”
For many, Bensoussan is a
sell-out, someone who be-
trayed the community, and her
2008 supporters.
“There’s great dissatisfaction with the incumbent,”
Breitfelder said. “Especially
from people who trusted and
elected Pamela Bensoussan to
office in 2008. Sometimes
based on expensive things like
hundreds of thousands of dollars spent on what has been
described as a ‘backroom deal,
sometimes based on more symbolic things like being the only
council person to take an over
$4,000 a year car allowance
while living less than two miles
from city hall.”
Breitfelder is a Chula
Vista businessperson who is
running for Seat 3 of the Chula
Vista City Council with a very
clear objective: “I believe that
we have to have a heart and
we have to be very careful
with our money so that we do
the best job of taking care of
people’s needs over the long
run,” he said.
The son of a Mexican mother
from Toluca, Breitfelder was
born in Tijuana and raised in
southwest Chula Vista. (In the
ballot, he uses his full name,
Larry Breitfelder Navas, paying homage to his mother’s
heritage.)
“Like everyone else, I get
perspective from what I’ve
observed and experienced,” he
said. “I’ve never believed in
division. I care about everyone
and I believe we should all do
what we can to help each other
reach our full potential.
“I just want everyone to
know how happy and proud I
am of my heritage. My feeling
for the Latino community is in
my soul and my blood - just
like it is for my mother and sister. I couldn’t be anything else
and I wouldn’t want to be.”
As a small business owner,
Breitfelder said that in city hall
he will fight for other small
businesses, which he considers the soul of the city.
“City Hall listens to big business,” he said. “That’s where
the political money comes
from. We have to work with
businesses that will invest and
create jobs, not sell out our
people or their neighborhoods
and small businesses. Right
now instead of helping our
small businesses operate, our
city tries to bleed them. While
protecting health and safety we should try to make our
regulations as easy to understand and affordable as possible. Our fees should be based
on reimbursing the people for
cost of providing specific services to businesses. Instead our
city tries to make a profit off
them. It’s short sighted and
costs us jobs and tax income
for neighborhood services.”
Breitfelder is the founder of
the Chula Vista Taxpayers
Association, where he successfully advocated against a
10 percent sales tax in 2009,
which was strongly supported
by Bensoussan.
“I believe most Latino residents and small business
people were against the 10%
sales tax advocated by Pamela
because it would have hurt lo-
cal small business, resulted in
people losing their jobs and
been a disproportionate burden
on our people of lower income,” he said.
He has been in the Otay
Water District board. He’s endorsed by th Chula Vista Police Officers Association,
Chula Vista Firefighters Association, Deputy Sheriff’s Association, and Chula Vista
Mobilehome Park Residents

Labor Day Tips From the U.S. Labor Secretary
On Labor Day 2012 and
every day, one of my top priorities is to help those looking
for work get the training they
need for good-paying jobs.
By 2020, 17 of the 30 fastest-growing occupations will
require a postsecondary certificate or degree. In fact, employers are actively looking to
fill nearly 4 million job openings in America right now. Getting the skills employers want
and need are critical to a successful career.
Here are a few tips:
• Get started! Your first
step is to check out your local
American Job Center. These
nearly 3,000 “one-stop-shops”
are part of a nationwide network where you can work with
experts to update your resume,
strengthen interview skills and
explore current job openings.
Find your local center by visiting CareerOneStop.org.
• Looking for a fresh
start? Check out MySkillsMy
Future.org to discover different careers that build off of
your existing skills, connect you
to free training programs and
even find employers in your
area looking to hire. The site
also shows how much different jobs pay near you or across
the country, as well as the additional skills you’ll need to succeed.
• Not sure what career is
right for you? Visit MyNext
Move.org to find the job that’s
the perfect fit. Fill out a questionnaire listing your interests
and abilities, and get suggestions for different employment
paths in more than 900 careers.
This site will also identify local
apprenticeship and certificate
programs to help you train and
get a job in high-growth industries.
• Are you a veteran? “My
Next Move for Vets” is designed just for you! Enter your
military occupation code and
the site matches your military
skills to civilian jobs. If you’re
a post-9/11 era veteran, you
can also download a Veterans
Gold Card at DOL.gov/VETS
to get specialized services
from your local American Job
Center.
• Don’t have Internet access at home? We’ve partnered with local libraries all
around the country to make
sure that you always have a
place to log on to our online
resources. Most American Job
Centers offer free access for
those looking for a job, too.
• Have more questions?
Call us. You can reach our tollfree helpline at (866) 4-USADOL for the most up to date
resources. Nearly 160,000
people do it each month. And
yes, we speak Spanish!
The United States Department of Labor has other resources to help you find a first
job, new job or different career.

NAVFAC Southwest Construction Manager Selected
for 2012 MAES Award
Pedro Lopez Recognized as Positive Latino Role Model
Pedro Lopez, Naval Facilities Engineering Command
(NAVFAC) Southwest construction manager at the Resident Officer in Charge of Construction (ROICC) office at
Marine Corps Air Station
(MCAS) Miramar, was selected July 27 for a 2012 Society of Mexican American Engineers and Scientists (MAES)
award.
“It is a great honor being the
recipient of the Brillante
Award,” said Lopez. “This
means a lot to me. It means that
there are organizations such as
MAES that care about individuals who excel in the field of science and engineering. MAES
serves as an inspiration for future Hispanic students to pursue careers in the field of science and engineering.”
The Brillante Award is one
of eleven categories of the
MAES Bravo Awards given to
two individuals. One individual
is a corporate employee and
another is a civil servant, active duty member or retired
member of the armed services.
The Bravo Awards recognize
excellence throughout the collegiate to professional pipeline
by identifying and projecting
the positive image of a Latino
role model within science,
technology, engineering, and
mathematics fields.
Lopez has executed highly
visible and critical projects required to maintain the mission
aboard MCAS Miramar by

LA COLUMNA VERTEBRAL
El Soporte Informativo Para Millones
de Hispanos
Por Luisa Fernanda Montero
El virus del Nilo mata
Es muy probable que por
estos días haya escuchado
hablar del virus del Nilo Occidental - VNO - pero ¿qué es
realmente y cómo puede afectarnos?
Vamos por partes. Para
empezar estamos hablando de
un virus. La palabra virus
viene del latín y significa toxina
o veneno. En términos generales, pues, un agente infeccioso microscópico que
puede llegar a nosotros de
diversas formas y hacernos
daño.
La más común de dichas
formas es a través de un
dichoso mosquito. De acuerdo
con la información suministrada
por los Centros de Control de
Enfermedades de Estados
Unidos – CDC - una sola
picadura de mosquito le puede
transmitir el virus del Nilo Occidental.
¿Qué mosquito? De acuerdo con los enciclopedistas
existen varias especies de
culícidos que pueden transmitir
el virus. ¿Y qué viene siendo
entonces un culícido? Los
enciclopédicos explican que los
culícidos son los famosos
dípteros nematóceros que
todos conocemos como mosquitos, moscos o zancudos.
Hay muchos tipos de fastidiosos zancudos. ¿De dónde
salen? Salen de los depósitos
de agua al aire libre donde sus
larvas se reproducen amplia y
felizmente. Crecen en cualquier charco, pozo, estanque,
llanta, paila, balde o recipiente
de agua estancada que per-
sista por más de 4 días.
Los abrevaderos, los canales de irrigación, los barriles
para recoger agua de lluvia, los
estercoleros y otros cuerpos de
agua estancada son también un
criadero fenomenal para
aumentar las poblaciones de
mosquitos que además suelen
ser asiduos habitantes de
espacios con espesa vegetación como matorrales o
arboledas o donde sea que
crezca la maleza.
Y entonces, ¿qué hacemos?
Además de evitarlos a toda
costa controlando la proliferación de aguas estancadas,
usar repelente.
El asunto no es de menor
importancia. Los CDC reportan que más de 30,000 personas en los Estados Unidos se
han enfermado por el virus del
Nilo Occidental desde 1999.
Más de 1,200 fallecieron.
En lo que va del 2012, 47
estados han reportado casos
de infección, más de 1,118 personas han adquirido la enfermedad y 41 de ellas han
muerto en lo que representa la
mayor tasa de infecciones
jamás vista en Estados Unidos.
Aunque muchas veces no
causa síntomas, en el 20 por
ciento de los casos la infección
por VNO genera síntomas
parecidos a los de la gripe o
influenza, como fiebre, fatiga,
dolor de cabeza y dolor muscular. Puede presentarse también
rigidez en el cuello, desorientación, temblores,
debilidad muscular y parálisis.
Las personas afectadas gra-
Luisa Fernanda Montero
vemente pueden contraer
encefalitis —inflamación del
cerebro— o meningitis —inflamación de las membranas
del cerebro o de la columna
vertebral— y los casos graves
pueden ser mortales.
Cualquier persona puede
infectarse, pero los mayores de
50 años de edad o aquellos que
han tenido un trasplante de
órgano corren un mayor riesgo
de enfermarse gravemente.
Así que recuérdelo muy
bien y póngalo en práctica.
Use repelente, protéjase. El uso
del repelente puede evitarle
serios dolores de cabeza,
escoja el que crea más adecuado para sus necesidades,
recuerde que existen repelentes para usar sobre la ropa,
revise las instrucciones de uso
y vuelva a aplicar el repelente
cuantas veces sea necesario.
No olvide lavarse la piel
tratada con agua y jabón al
regresar a su casa y usar
pantalones largos, camisas de
manga larga y medias a la hora
de exponerse. Ocúpese de los
espacios al aire libre en su casa
y en su barrio en los que pueda
haber focos de reproducción
de mosquitos. Recuerde: el virus de Nilo mata y todos
estamos expuestos. No sea un
caso más.

ruptions to current tenants. He
is currently working on a $103
million hangar for the Marine
Corps’ new MV-22 aircraft.
The project contains first of its
kind scientifically engineered
materials, which requires
Lopez to work and coordinate
with research developers to
ensure the project’s success.
Lopez has also served as a
mentor to several interns with
diverse backgrounds providing
training and oversight on the
management of several construction projects. He trained
interns on how to perform engineering calculations, material
take-offs, and environmental
planning during their rotations
through the ROICC office.
“Having been nominated by
NAVFAC Southwest, especially by the great team of
ROICCC Miramar, has the
most personal meaning to me,”
said Lopez. “This recognition
proves to me that my command believes in me, and I take
pride in representing NAVFAC
Southwest at the 2012 MAES
Symposium on Oct. 12, 2012.”
Lopez will receive his award
Oct. 12 at the MAES 38th
Annual Symposium in Las Vegas.

Before:
• Check home for potential
hazards – things that can
topple over and cause injury.
• Secure televisions, bookshelves and other heavy furniture to the wall.
• Use special hooks to secure photos and art to walls.
• Plan and rehearse with
your family where you can

each room of your home.
During:
• Drop, Cover and Hold On.
Get down low to avoid falling,
find a sturdy desk or table to
seek cover under and hold onto
it while covering your head
with your other arm.
• If there are no tables, find
an interior wall that is not near
any heavy furniture or near
glass picture frames, windows
or under light fixtures, scoot
down and cover your head.
• If outside, find an open
area away from buildings,
trees, or overhead utility
wires, sit down and cover your
head.
After:
• Check your home for potential hazards.
• If you smell gas, turn it off
at the valve.

Un sueño que sigue creciendo
El San Ysidro Health Center abre el King-Chavez Health Center
King-Chavez Health Center
Por Pablo Jaime Sáinz
En 1969, un grupo de mujeres inmigrantes se unió para
tratar de traer cuidado de salud
de calidad a la empobrecida
comunidad de San Isidro.
Su sueño era hacer que el
cuidado médico estuviera
disponible para todos, sin
importar si tenían seguro
médico o no. Lo que inició
como una pequeña meta, se
convirtió en el San Ysidro
Health Center, uno de los
sistemas de clínicas comunitarias más grandes del Condado de San Diego.
A más de 40 años, el sueño
de esas mujeres continúa
creciendo con la apertura del
King-Chavez Health Center,
que servirá a los residentes del
sureste de San Diego.
El viernes, 7 de septiembre,

“The King-Chavez Health

Martinez said, “is to provide a
healthcare home to all patients—one that serves as the
first point of entry into the
healthcare system—while also
providing continuity of care
over time, as well as emphasizes preventive care and coordinates care across various
institutional barriers.”
In recent years, the SYHC
has become an example to
other community clinic systems throughout the country.
Since Martinez became CEO
in 1998, the SYHC has evolved into one of the county’s
largest safety net providers delivering health services to lowincome, uninsured residents.
“I think it is very meaningful that our projects give testimony of the high-caliber and

–uno que sirva como entrada

La Raza
Unida
(con’t from page 1)
not one Mexican American had
(since the late 1800’s) been
elected to a California statewide office, only one Mexican
American (Alex Garcia from
Los Angeles) elected to the
state legislature, and in San
Diego County one Mexican
American elected, Louie
Camacho from National City.
During that period many
MAPA members participated
in electorate politics in SD
County, but soon became disillusioned due to the inherent discrimination and racism that
they encountered in the Democratic Party. Particularly aggravating to Chicanos was the
Democratic Party’s failure to
address issues affecting the
Mexican American community, and assist/support Mexican-American candidates for
public offices. MAPA, after
attaining some of its political
objectives unfortunately
changed, and ended up as an,
“endorsing political organization,” mainly for Democratic
Party candidates.
By1971 National City
MAPA activists had come to
the conclusion that the Democratic and Republican parties
were not going to change, or
provide the needed solutions to
the issues/problems afflicting
our people in California, and
other states. It was at that time
that Texas LRUP founder Jose
Angel Gutierrez visited our office in National City. After
PAGE 5
meeting and talking to him, a
vote was later taken by MAPA
members to start a political
chapter of LRUP in San Diego County. Bert Corona was
then LRUP national organizer.
The SD County Chapter of
LRUP set a goal of registering
10,000 voters to meet the required 67,000 voters needed to
become a statewide political
party in California. The stated
goal of SD County LRUP organizers was that once 10,000
voters were registered, a convention would be held and
those voters would provide organizers with a mandate to
determine what kind of political party they wanted to create. Either a vanguard party as
proposed by Colorado’s
Rodolfo “Corky” Gonzales that
would build power to create a,
“nation within a nation”
Aztlan. Or an electoral party
that would control cities, counties and states politically where
Chicanos were the majority as
Texas Jose Angel Gutierrez
proposed.
Unfortunately after years of
ideological battles and infighting, that LRUP was unable to
overcome, the concept of organizing a third political party
to control the politics of our
communities’ had to be left to
a future generation.
This coming Labor Day
weekend, participants (after
forty years) will again meet in
El Paso. Not just to commemorate the 1972 convention, but also to address the
fundamental issues of our
people’s historical political disenfranchisement. The question
for those in attendance will be
numerous, but one of the major questions raised will be,
what role did LRUP play, or
will play in the political future
of this nation’s fastest growing population?
In my opinion, after having
participated in both electoral
and movement politics, the
legacy that LRUP leaves is
numerous, it includes the following political concepts, A)
The first to utilize the principal
of self-determination to create
a political party for our people,
that would be controlled and
accountable to our people, B)
A call for our people to build
“political power” to control
their destiny C) Political philosophies and ideologies to create mandates, a constituencies
and an infrastructure so our
people could define issues that
affected them, and so they
would be able to select and
elect their own candidates, etc.
In closing, one thing that no
one can dispute is the demographic change of the last 40
years…50 million Chicano/
Latinos in 2012, projected to
increase to 132 million by 2050,
and that both the Democrats
and Republicans parties continue to fail to represent our
people. The Democratic
Obama administration has deported record numbers of undocumented Mexican workers,
and Republicans have literally
“declared war” on our
people, with draconian measures such as Arizona’s SB
1070, the elimination of
Chicano studies, etc. In conclusion the question for all attending the commemoration in
El Paso will certainly be…do
50 million Chicanos/Latinos need to create a third
political party like La Raza
Unida in 2012?
such as funding cuts to vital
social services, lay-offs and a
loss of homes. Social issues
such as deteriorating schools
and health care have been accompanied by the growth of
gangs and drug use within their
neighborhoods. Laboring under
inhumane conditions that are
reminiscent of the Middle
Ages, millions of farm workers still work the land that is
owned by the few who grow
richer as the misery of the farm
workers increases. These agricultural workers still endure
low pay, unsafe working conditions, sub-standard health
care, their children laboring in
the fields instead of attending
school, and the lack of union
organization and laws to protect their interests.
Chicano youth also face an
uphill struggle in society as college costs have spiraled drastically while the future prospects for a secure and decent
job have dwindled. Other related problems such as gang
membership, drug use, the
pressure to join the military with
its possibility of death, have
created obstacles to a stable
future for young people. The
Chicano intelligentsia within
the universities is experiencing
a growing campaign of funding cuts and efforts to diminish
or eliminate Chicano Studies
programs which if successful
will negatively affect their students and the jobs of these professors. The situation of many
Latino immigrants is precarious not only from an economic
standpoint, but also a legal one
as they have to live under the
increasing threat of deportation
while their children exist in a
legal limbo where they are unsure of their future status or
rights.

by continuing their

The march and protest
against the Vietnam War and
for justice here at home that
took place on on August 29,
1970, was a peaceful one until
it was attacked by the police
authorities. This violent assault
led to the deaths of three individuals: journalist Ruben
Salazar, Brown Beret Lynn
Ward and Angel Diaz. An Austrian student and political supporter named Gustav Montag
was killed in 1971 by L.A. sheriffs at a subsequent Moratorium march that had also been
attacked.
The commemoration of the
cultural legacy and tradition of
the Chicano Moratorium must
also include a remembrance to
the memories of these four
martyrs who died in the resistance against injustice. They
were heroes of the Moratorium
who did not die in vain as their
historical legacy lives on with
that of this event. This Saturday, let us all commemorate
this traditional event that is
now an essential part of our
history and culture, and the four
martyrs who are symbols of
our struggle by continuing their
valiant work to achieve equal

thought that, you would have been mistaken!
The Sweetwater Authority Board anticipated a large turnout and had set up extra
seats for the crowd which never materialized. The board, with seemingly little
opposition to the proposal quickly passed
the rate increase, despite the passionate
pleas from the few community members
that did show up to protest the rate hike.
After the vote, none of the community
members went home happy. Especially
after seeing the cost of water increased
once again in two years. For Bonita residents this was a particularly tough pill to
swallow. Their rates were tripled for
some last time. Those who saw their
water rates go to $800 every two months
once again saw their rates raised by 6.5%.
Even those who stringently conserve
water and meet the goal of only using 10
units of water, or 748 gallons, every two
months, saw their water rate double. This
group includes senior citizens on fixed
incomes and low income folks.
At a time where we have little control
over the ever increasing cost of living,
gas and electricity or the price of gasoline, the water rate increase is one of the
few places where the community can
actually have a say, that is when the community shows up. By staying home, the
community relinquishes its voice and in
turn has little to say when they receive
their next water bill and complain about
the high cost. The time to say something
was before. Afterwards is too late.
The Republican Party platform.
Cause for concern.
A
party platform is a document
presented at the nominating
convention that presents and
represents the ideals, vision,
goals, and attitudes of that particular political party. This week the Republican
Party presented their platform. After
reading all 62 pages of it, there wasn’t
anything in there that we didn’t already
know about the Republican Party.
The Republican Party is anti-immigrant, wants to do away with the DREAM
Act and impose stiffer immigration enforcement. Its platform makes no mention of employer sanctions. It wants to
reprisal the failed guest worker program.
It seeks to make English the official language, supports state laws such as those
passed in Arizona, and refers to immigrants in the most draconian of terms:
“Illegal immigration undermines
those benefits and affects U.S. workers. In an age of terrorism, drug cartels, human trafficking, and criminal
gangs, the presence of millions of unidentified persons in this country poses
grave risks to the safety and the sovereignty of the United States.”
The Republican Party is all about big
business and lowering taxes, which in
turn impacts most if not all social service programs. It seeks to eliminate most
if not all regulations and safeguards, in
particular the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA), while continuing tax
breaks for the wealthiest in our country.
It protects tax loop holes which allow
major corporations that make billions of
dollars in profits to continue to pay no
taxes at all. The Republican Party wants
to repeal Dodd-Frank, the financial reform laws, and go back to the days when
banks had free reign to do as they wish.
The list goes on to the benefit of the rich
and powerful.
For the poor, Republicans offer the
fairytale that “any American who works
hard, dreams big and follows the rules
can achieve anything he or she wants.”
The GOP wants to cut Medicare, MediCal, food stamps and welfare. And of
course they want to dismantle the Universal Health Care Program that will insist that everyone has some sort of
health insurance.
It is well known that the GOP is against
any form of abortion, even in the case of
rape, and strongly supports the “onewoman one-man” doctrine for marriage.
This is today’s modern Republican
Party, more conservative than the Republican Party of President Ronald Reagan.
A party that is dominated by the ultraconservative, Tea Party leadership that
sees no problem with a person having the
unfettered ability to own and carry a gun
in public, with as many bullets as needed
to “defend themselves.”
There are 62 pages of this document,
which by the way, barely mentions Latin
America with the exception of Cuba and
Venezuela. This manifesto is not a binding contract with the party’s presidential
candidate, but it does give us a clear idea
of where the Republican Party would lead
us, if they gained control of the executive office in addition to the congress.
This document goes a long way in explaining why, particularly in California, the
Republican Party has lost ground to the
Democratic Party. Their platform represents a party for the rich, for the racist,
and for the sexist. Republicans are clearly
out of step with the demographic shift in
the United States. Just take a look at the
crowd at this convention and you will have
a hard time finding any minorities sitting
in the audience.
The Republican Convention of 2012
will soon be over and forgotten, but the
platform which all Republican candidates
must subscribe to provides a good window into the soul of today’s Republican
Party. It is not a pretty picture.
No Decent Reason for 2,000 Dead in
Afghanistan
By Matthew Rothschild
just get murkier and murkier.
Osama bin Laden, after all, is dead. And he
was killed not in Afghanistan but in Pakistan.
Defenders of the war say we need to stay
there to keep the Taliban from coming back to
power. But Karzai himself has endorsed a code
of conduct by the country’s Islamic council that
approves of husbands beating their wives under Sharia law.
The United States is not at war with Afghanistan for humanitarian reasons.
It is there because Afghanistan borders Iran
to the West and China to the East: two countries in the Pentagon’s sights. And it is there
because Afghanistan is a transport route for
oil from the stans of the former Soviet Union
down to the Arabian Sea.
These are the real reasons the United States
is at war with Afghanistan. But these are not
decent reasons for letting 2,000 U.S. service
members perish.
This past week marked a grisly milestone in
Afghanistan: The 2,000th U.S. service member has now died there.
And the pace of those deaths has increased,
with Obama’s surge bringing about a surge of
U.S. deaths. As the New York Times notes, it
took about nine years of war to claim the first
1,000 U.S. soldiers and Marines. And it took
just a little more than two years to slay the second thousand.
Just in the last week alone, nine U.S. servicemen have died at the hands of Afghan security
forces who are supposed to be our allies.
President Obama needs to ask himself, as
I’m sure many of our servicemen and their families are asking themselves, “Why are we over
there if even our so-called friends are killing
us?”
There are now more than twice as many U.S.
service members in Afghanistan today than on
the day George W. Bush left office.

Todd Akins is not alone in extremist views
Local Congressman Brian Bilbray co-sponsored a bill to redefine rape; voted to defund
Planned Parenthood
Recently Missouri Senatorial candidate Todd
Akin stated that he opposes a woman’s right to
terminate a pregnancy, even in cases of rape,
because he says “legitimate rape” rarely results in pregnancy. He claims that a woman’s
body somehow knows to “shut the whole thing
down” and prevent pregnancy that might result from a sexual assault.
Rape is rape and it is ignorant and insensitive
to suggest that some forms of rape are legitimate and others are not. Additionally his claim
about pregnancy is medically inaccurate; there
is absolutely no evidence that the female body
can instinctively defend itself against pregnancy
as Akin suggests. According to the National
Sexual Violence Research Center, 25,000 become pregnant women each year as a result of
rape. For Akin to suggest that their experience
is illegitimate is appalling.
It is disturbing that people are legislating and
running for office who have such a fundamental disregard for women and women’s health.
Akin is not alone in his beliefs, though. His
statements reflect the views of Vice Presidential candidate Paul Ryan and many others. Last
year, Ryan cosponsored a bill that would essentially redefine rape in order to create legislative barriers for women seeking to terminate
a pregnancy. It would do so at one of the most
traumatic and vulnerable points in a woman’s
life. San Diego Congressman Brian Bilbray
co-sponsored the bill to redefine rape. He also
voted to defund Planned Parenthood. Bilbray
calls himself a moderate, but his record shows
him in lockstep with extremists like Todd Akin.
Presidential candidate Mitt Romney has
stated that he wants to shut down Planned Parenthood and the nation’s family planning program, which currently provides five million lowincome people with lifesaving cervical, breast
and testicular cancer screenings, testing and
treatment for sexually transmitted diseases, and
contraception. As most people know, more than
90% of Planned Parenthood services are preventive and federal funds do not pay for abortion except in very rare cases. There is no other
organization that does more to reduce the rate
of abortion than Planned Parenthood.
A small percentage of Planned Parenthood
services is abortion care. Abortion is a deeply
personal and often complex decision for a
woman. There’s no simple answer because no
one knows a woman’s specific situation.
Women don’t turn to politicians for advice on
birth control, mammograms, or cancer screenings and treatments. Politicians should not be
involved in a woman’s personal medical decisions about her pregnancy because they have
not walked in her shoes.
Our nation needs leaders who address problems rationally, with data and scientific evidence. We know that the best way to reduce
the rate of abortion is to create greater access
to contraception. Scientists also firmly reject
the notion that women’s bodies can defend
themselves against pregnancy in the case of
rape. And most people are appalled when they
hear of attempts to redefine rape and decide
which are “legitimate.”
Planned Parenthood Action Fund of the Pacific Southwest urges the community to pay
close attention to the voting records and public
statements of candidates on the November
ballot. We need representatives who are focused on positive strategies for economic recovery and broad access to health care, not
extremists who are out of touch with the needs
of our community.

of Directors at Planned Parenthood Action
Fund of the Pacific Southwest.

Why Latinos Need to
Register and Vote
By: Arturo Vargas
Latinos are the fastest-growing and second
largest population group in the United States.
According to projections from the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials (NALEO) Educational Fund, more than
12.2 million Latino voters are expected to cast
ballots on Election Day, an increase of 26 percent from 2008.
The Latino voter will again be a decisive force
in the White House race, in addition to statewide and local elections across the nation.
Latinos are predicted to be the deciding factor
this November in nine key states, which carry
101 Electoral College votes of the 270 needed
for either President Obama or Governor Romney to win this year.
Despite the ability of the Latino voter to shape
America’s political landscape more than 10
million Latinos are expected not to vote this
November.
Imagine the electoral potential if all 23.5 million Latino citizens of voting-age were not only
registered, but voted. Imagine if all Americans
of voting-age were not only registered, but
voted.
Campaigns and candidates are battling for
support and for voters to rally behind their ideas
and their leadership. Voting does not just send
a candidate to Washington D.C., the state legislature or city hall; it speaks to the issues most
pressing in a voter’s life such as the economy,
education, and healthcare.
We can bring change to our communities, but
we need to vote. In order to secure funding
for schools, to create new jobs and safer streets
we must cast our ballot in every election including the next one on November 6.
Ensuring today’s voter is informed, empowered, and inspired to own this year’s election
means continuing to eliminate the barriers that
prevent participation. Now more than ever, the
need to register to vote is high.
Registering to vote hass never been easier.
NALEO Educational Fund, in collaboration with
other national Latino organizations and Spanish-language media, coordinates the historic
non-partisan Latino ya es hora (“It’s Time”)
civic participation campaign, which helps voters navigate the registration process.
Individuals interested in registering to vote
can call ya es hora’s national bilingual hotline,
1-888-VE-Y-VOTA, which is operational yearround to help voters with electoral information.
While the Post Office and libraries provide voter
registration forms, citizens can also register to
vote easily online at www.YaEsHora.info. It
takes less than 5 minutes to complete, and once
complete, must be printed, stamped, and mailed.
In addition, the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will offer Californians
the ability to register to vote online without
needing to print the form by visiting
www.dmv.ca.gov.
With less than three months until Election
Day, it is critical people register to vote ahead
of the registration deadline. The registration
deadline in California is October 22, however
it is never too early to register to vote or to
encourage others to do the same. Registering
to vote is the first step towards bettering communities and country. The second is making an
informed vote on November 6 that speaks on
what matters most to you. The next is continued engagement. Only through active participation, year after year, will we continue
strengthening our democracy and our country.
Make your vote count on November 6. Register to vote!

An Open Letter to Mrs.
Mitt Romney
Dear Mrs. Romney:
During your party’s national convention, at
some gathering, you urged La Raza (that’s
what we call ourselves) to get “past our biases” and vote Republican. You emphasized
how “important” this election will be for us.
Then, like a true Republican wife, you said we’d
be mistaken if we thought we’d be better off
voting for Barack Obama again.
You do know that we are one of the fastest
growing voting blocs in America, and you and
your husband and other politicians are trying to
pander to us, but hoping other prospective voters aren’t looking.
For many of us, you were simply another
poignant example of politicians abandoning us.
Following your script, you then said that “if
Mitt Romney wins, America wins.” Aww, what
a cute line . . . but stupid!
Your brow beating continued as you advised
us to wake up and really look at the issues . . .
this time.
To quote you, “You’d better really look at your
future and figure out who’s going to be the guy
that’s going to make it better for you and your
children, and there is only one answer.” The
answer, according to you, is your husband.
You went on to say that you and
Whatshisname, “ very much care about you
and your families and the opportunities that are
there for you and your families.”
Then you stressed your immigrant roots,
mentioning your grandfather who was a Welsh
coalminer, as you were aiming to connect with
the Latinos in the audience, probably in the
back of the room. Or in the kitchen.
Adding to your insensitive remarks, you mentioned Puerto Rico’s first lady then said “you
people really know how to party, it was crazy!”
Listen up first lady wannabe: the only Latino
votes your husband can count on are coming
from rich Cuban Americans in Florida. Maybe
some from
more rich Cubanos in Texas and that’s about it.
Biases? We don’t have no stinkin’ biases! Not
when it comes to Republicans, we know who
they are and how much they care about the
“other Americans.” Seriously, Mrs. Romney,
these professed great Americans care more
about their horses or offshore bank accounts.
Unless they feel we can be used, then they’ll
come around (every four years, like clockwork)
to offer us “help.”
Democrats aren’t seen as much better by
many of us, to be honest.
But let’s be frank, this bit about us being better off with our current president, let me just
say that BO is the lesser of the proverbial two
evils. Your line about “if Mitt wins -America
wins” - methinks you mean, that if your husband wins, white-America wins. Been there,
done that.
What do you mean by interjecting that
“wake-up” line? Were you implying that we’re
on some sempiternal siesta? Maybe propped
against a cactus and wearing a huge sombrero?
Jesuscristo, first-lady wannabe! Who’s your
speech writer?
That immigrant line was a killer. Something
about you knowing what it’s like to be the
daughter of an immigrant. (If the kitchen workers understood what you said, they probably
cringed.) Then you threw out the ever popular, “you people” line to the Puerto Ricans.
The Romneys shouldn’t be surprised that the
low support the GOP already had among
Latinos will continue to diminish after the
convention’s bump wears off.
(Democrats, as you know, use Spanish language ads to target Latino voters, but an increase in deportations and a lack of progress
on immigration reform has many questioning
the motives of Democrats as well, by the way.
The hypocrisy of our legislators saying one thing
but doing another is classic American politics.)
So, Mrs. Romney, like your fellow Republicans, you have clearly told us what to expect
from the GOP should, eh, you people make it
to the White House this fall.
God help us all.
PS: For what it’s worth, Mrs. Romney, should
Hurricane Isaac become an omen to remind
you and your friends of a Republican
Administration’s gross negligence the last time
the Gulf Coast was inundated, so be it.
Signed:
Andy Porras
Por qué los latinos tienen

Los latinos conforman la población segunda
más grande y de más rápido crecimiento en
Estados Unidos. Según predicciones del Fondo
para la Educación de la Asociación Nacional
de Oficiales Latinos Electos y Nombrados
(NALEO, por sus siglas en inglés), se anticipa
que más de 12.2 millones de votantes latinos
ejercerán el sufragio el Día de las Elecciones,
un aumento del 26 por ciento comparado con
2008.
El votante latino nuevamente será una fuerza
decisiva en la carrera para la Casa Blanca, así
como en elecciones estatales y locales en todo
el país. Se anticipa que los latinos decidan el
resultado este noviembre en nueve estados
clave, que cuentan con 101 de los 270 votos
requeridos en el Colegio Electoral para que el
Presidente Obama o el Gobernador Romney
gane este año.
A pesar de la capacidad del votante latino de
dibujar el retrato político de Estados Unidos, se
anticipa que más de 10 millones de latinos no
votarán este noviembre.
Imaginemos el potencial electoral si todos los
23.5 millones de ciudadanos latinos mayores
de edad no sólo se registraran para votar, sino
que votaran. Imaginemos que todos los
estadounidenses mayores de edad no sólo se
registraran, sino que votaran.
Las campañas y los candidatos pelean por
apoyo y para que los votantes apoyen sus ideas
y su liderazgo. El votar no solamente envía a
un candidato a Washington, D.C., al congreso
estatal o al ayuntamiento; habla por los asuntos
que más afectan la vida de un votante, tales
como la economía, la educación y la salud.
Podemos traer cambios a nuestras comunidades, pero tenemos que votar. Para
asegurar fondos para las escuelas, para crear
nuevos empleos y calles más seguras, tenemos
que votar en cada elección, empezando por la
del 6 de noviembre.
Asegurar que el votante de hoy esté
informado, empoderado e inspirado a tomar el
control de estas elecciones significa seguir
eliminando las barreras contra la participación.
Ahora más que nunca hay una gran necesidad
de que todos voten.
Nunca ha sido más fácil registrarse para votar.
El Fondo Educativo de NALEO, en conjunto
con otras organizaciones latinas nacionales y
con los medios de habla hispana, coordina la
histórica campaña latina sin nexos con partidos
políticos “ya es hora”, para la participación
cívica, que ayuda a los votantes a navegar el
proceso de registro.
Quien tenga interés en registrarse para votar
puede llamar al número nacional bilingüe de
“ya es hora” al 1-888-VE-Y-VOTA, el cual
funciona todo el año para ayudar a los votantes
con información electoral. La Oficina de
Correos y las bibliotecas proporcionan formatos
para registrarse a votar, y los ciudadanos
también pueden registrarse fácilmente en línea
en www.YaEsHora.info. Se tarda menos de 5
minutos para llenarse, y una vez llenada, debe
imprimirse y enviarse con estampilla. Además,
el Departamento de Vehículos Motorizados
(DMV) de California ofrecerá a los californianos la posibilidad de registrarse en línea
sin tener que imprimir el formato, en
www.dmv.ca.gov.
Quedan menos de tres meses para las
elecciones, y es crítico que la gente se registre
para votar antes de la fecha límite. La fecha
límite para registrarse en California es el 22 de
octubre, pero es bueno registrarse temprano e
incitar a los demás a hacer lo mismo.
Registrarse para votar es el primer paso hacia
mejores comunidades y un mejor país. El
segundo paso es votar con conciencia el 6 de
noviembre y representar lo que más le importe
a usted. El siguiente paso es seguir participando.
Sólo mediante la participación activa, año tras
año, seguiremos fortaleciendo nuestra democracia y nuestro país.
Que su voto cuente el 6 de noviembre.

El Girafe
Dear Male Giraffe Gabacho: Good for
you for having Mexican friends AND
learning Spanish to speak to them! And for
having such cultured conversations instead
of just whistling at hot chicas who pass by
the workplace and talking trash on your
kind! What’s now the Mexican tricolor is
technically older than the Italian tricolore—
although Italian kingdoms had used redwhite-green color schemes in their flags
since the late 18th century, modern-day Italy
really didn’t form until the Kingdom of Italy
in the 1860s, and it adopted the general
design that still exists today in Italy’s flag.
Mexico’s tricolor, on the other hand, dates
back to shortly after the War of
Independence for Spain and is based on the
flag of the Army of the Three Guarantees,
the unit led by Agustín de Iturbide, Mexico’s
first emperor; that flag was also red, white
and green, although the stripes were
diagonal instead of vertical. Reason for
those color choices? Maybe Iturbide was a
fan of Risorgimento, the movement that
eventually unified all of Italy; maybe he
wanted to confuse gabachos y Mexicans
alike for centuries. Whatever the reason is,
it’s lost to history, like numerous Aztec

Thinking “Lucha Pollo” is not the
Translation of “Chicken Fight”
Dear Gabacho: In 2004, the Center for
Applied Research did a study for the
Federal Highway Administration titled “The
Pedestrian and Bicyclist Highway Safety
Problem As It Relates to the Hispanic
Population in the United States” that found a
couple of interesting things. One stat was
that Latinos were twice more likely to bike
to work than gabachos; another was that
“Hispanics and Blacks are over-represented
in pedestrian crashes,” with Latino deaths in
bike crashes were 2.88 per 100,000
population, while the rate for gabachos
were 1.78 per 100,000, and that a
disproportionate amount of said deaths and
accidents in general happened late at night,
when most Mexi riders are returning or
going to work. The report recommended
educational outreach to Mexicans to correct
the errors that you pointed out, but to say
it’s due to Mexican culture is false: negritos
had a greater rate of death than Latinos, and
while no hard stats exist for cycling deaths in
Mexico, Mexico City is world-renowned
for its great urban cycling environment. If
you see Mexicans cycling wrong, it’s
probably because the urban streets don’t
allow for a proper environment (cycling
with traffic is also dangerous). This is a
teachable moment: get with them and
advocate for designated lanes, bike-sharing
programs, and amnesty for illegal
immigrants.

Whenever I Got Out
(con’t from page 1)
That’s what I always wanted — to have people
that actually speak our language working in the
hospitals and in the welfare office, teachers in
the school and in the system. Wherever we go,
there would be one of us there.
In addition, I wish there were free medical
care, and we were able to get overtime. You
only start to get overtime after ten hours. I was
pretty upset when I heard that.
When I worked in the tomatoes recently,
[some workers] stole four boxes from me. I
told my family to report it to the Labor Department, [but] to them it’s inevitable. They think
we should just put up with it and be grateful
that we have a job. [They] also fear losing their
job if they make a complaint. That’s pretty much
how it is. They would make fun of my dad because he would complain a lot. They’d say,
“That’s why your dad is like that and never gets
jobs.”
I was emancipated for about seven to eight
months. My family was very conservative and
strong in their Christian beliefs. I couldn’t do
anything, and felt like I was trapped. I really
wanted to go with my friends to dances. Plus
I’m bisexual — to them that’s a sin and you’re
going to hell. I couldn’t live like that. I left home
and went to live with my dad. He wasn’t like I
expected. He blamed me too, so I was homeless for three months.
I was working the graveyard shift, ten hours
a night at C & D Zodiac, where they make jets.
During the day I went to school. My AP History teacher saw I was dozing off and sleeping
in class. I came out to him, and he told me,
“You can’t live like this. You need to confront
them.” So I went back to my family and confronted them. I became an activist, and I’ve
been one ever since.
But I think it’s possible to change things,
which I get from my heroes and earlier activists, like Gandhi and Martin Luther King. I’m
going to go to Los Angeles and work for an
organization that serves the indigenous community and then start school. I want to see
how you run an organization like that, and open
one here. I’ll work in the fields if I have to in
order to pay off my debt, but I don’t want to
work there just to earn a living.
I’m proud of what my mom and older siblings did in order to get the family here and
survive. That was my motivation for choosing
only AP classes. My sister didn’t get an education. None of my older sisters could go to
school. I really want fairness and equality in
schools. I want the discrimination against indigenous kids to stop in elementary schools.
That’s where it starts. They affiliate themselves
with gangs, to get it to stop. That’s the only
reason.
I didn’t want to learn Spanish, because I
didn’t want to lose my Mixteco language. I
try to keep in touch with my indigenous roots.
Whenever I cut my hair I always bury it. I
asked my mother why we did that, and she
says it’s because you fertilize the earth.
When it rains, I get a bowl and fill it with
rainwater and drink it. I would talk with her as
our bowls filled up. When I visit my dad I ask
him to tell me folktales. When I have a dream
I ask him to tell me what it means. I want to
write down my language before it gets lost.

que se votarán durante la convención de Tampa,
incluyen:
- Más E-Verify.
- No a las ciudades santuario.
- Terminar el muro fronterizo con México.
- No a las matrículas para estudiantes
indocumentados, al precio de residentes
estatales.
Claramente los republicanos se lanzan de

migrantes y deportarlos. Son esos mismos
policías quienes entregan a los migrantes a
los delincuentes en las casas de seguridad, lo
que significa un aumento de la putrefacción
de las estructuras de administración de la
justicia”.
Es otro de esos casos de “candil de la
calle, oscuridad en la casa”. El gobierno
mexicano respondió, forzadamente, obligado
por las denuncias no solamente en México
sino de la comunidad internacional, votando
al vapor la Ley Mexicana de Migración, y
sacando las fotos del Padre Solalinde en
primera plana.
Hoy, a dos años de San Fernando, Solalinde
vive medio escondido y de hecho abandonó el
país por una temporada, ante las amenazas
de muerte, y la Ley no entra en vigor porque
sin Reglamento simplemente no puede
aplicarse. Efectivamente, un pendiente es que
el régimen de Felipe Calderón no ha
terminado todavía el Reglamento que debe
acompañar la famosa Ley de Mexicana de
Migración, esa que con tanta premura aprobó
el Congreso el año pasado con gran
escándalo y que se utilizó para tremenda
campaña publicitaria en su favor, con la foto
al frente del Padre Solalinde.
Francamente, no veo que fallo “celebra la
Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores, si a final
de cuentas son mucho peores las políticas del
gobierno mexicano contra los inmigrantes,
que dejan muertos por miles, que las leyes
anti-inmigrantes gringas…
en tránsito hacia el Norte.
“Durante el sexenio del presidente Felipe
Calderón se emprendió una política de terror
en materia migratoria, caracterizada por
asesinatos, secuestros y torturas contra miles
de migrantes que transitan por territorio
nacional”, se dijo en el evento, y que “el
gobierno federal deja una deuda en la
protección de las garantías y seguridad de ese
sector”.
Hace dos años por estas fechas se hallaron
los cuerpos de 72 migrantes en una fosa
clandestina en San Fernando, Tamaulipas, y el
caso será analizado por el Tribunal
Permanente de los Pueblos como crimen de
Estado y de esa humanidad, y posiblemente
como genocidio, según el obispo de Saltillo,
Coahuila, Raúl Vera López. Como en el caso
de San Fernando, en grupos o de uno en uno,
ha cobrado desde 2006, unos 70 mil migrantes
han desaparecido en el país, muchos de ellos
encontrados en fosas clandestinas en
diferentes ciudades, según la denuncia de
Vera López.
“Las políticas migratorias del gobierno
mexicano no son de apoyo o asistencia sino
de control, y su finalidad es evitar que lleguen
a Estados Unidos. Es muy clara la impunidad
en la que se deja actuar al crimen organizado,
es una política de terror”, afirmó el prelado, y
agregó que “San Fernando exhibe la

retenes supuestamente para capturar a los
programa de Jorge Ramos, fueron tan descaradas, que su copartidario, el exdirector del
Servicio de Inmigración y Ciudadanía (USCIS),
Alfonso Aguilar, se vio obligado a corregirlo.
Hace unos días, Franco elogiaba al alguacil
Joe Arpaio y justificaba las cárceles privadas
de ICE, en un programa de la cadena internacional NTN24, diciendo que el sheriff
actuaba de acuerdo con la ley y los centros de
detención funcionaban relativamente bien.
Las demandas contra Arpaio indican que lo
dicho por Franco no es cierto, y los estudios
sobre las prisiones señalan lo mismo. Tampoco
es verdad que la plataforma de un partido que
tiene siglo y medio de existencia no valga para
nada.
hecho contra los soñadores, que aspiran a
continuar sus estudios superiores pagando, pero
pagando unas tarifas asequibles.
La última aventura de Kobach, el “de facto”
portavoz republicano en inmigración, es asesorar
una demanda de agentes del Servicio de
Inmigración y Aduanas (ICE) de Texas contra
la acción diferida. La querella, alabada por el
congresista antiinmigrante Lamar Smith,
argumenta que la medida del ejecutivo hace que
los agentes migratorios “violen la ley”. Esa es
la oferta republicana: pretender negar una
oportunidad a dos millones de jóvenes, que son
vitales para el país y la mejora de la economía.
Pero eso es algo que no entiende gente como Rafael Prieto Zartha es el director editorial
del semanario Qué Pasa-Mi Gente, en CharKobach y Franco.

The Petition for Probate requests that:
LINDA GERIANN CAUSEY be appointed
as personal representative to administer
the estate of the decedent.
The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent
Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain
very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give
notice to interested persons unless they
have waived notice or consented to the
proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless
an interested person files an objection to
the petition and shows good cause why
the court should not grant the authority.
A hearing on the petition will be held
in this court as follows: Date: October
4, 2012. Time: 1:30pm. Dept: PC-2
Address of court: SUPERIOR COURT OF
CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SAN DIEGO,

If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and
state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your
appearance may be in person or by your
attorney.
If you are a creditor or a contingent
creditor of the decedent, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy
to the personal representative appointed
by the court within four months from the
date of first issuance of letters as provided
in Probate Code section 9100. The time
for filling claims will not expire before four
months from the hearing date notice above.
You may examine the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in the
estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of
the filing of an inventory and appraisal of
estate assets or of any petition or account
as provided in Probate Code section 1250.

Tips to make a game day party
fun for everyone
FAMILY FEATURES
G
ame day is no time
to be sidelined in
the kitchen. Do a
little pre-game
planning so you can spend less
time cooking and more time
cheering on the home team.
Keep it simple — Instead of
taking up space with a lot of
dishes to hold condiments, use
muffin pans. Each well in the
pans can hold a different topping
for your burgers, hot dogs or
chili. Put a spoon in each for
easy dipping. It’s simple, fun,
and you’ll have fewer post-game
dishes to wash.
Set up a dipping station —
Have a selection of salsas and
guac available so everyone can
have their favorite. From Wholly
Salsa’s classics to the new red
pepper mango or roasted tomato
varieties, fans can find a salsa to
cheer about. And for guacamole
lovers, try Wholly Guacamole’s
all-natural, gluten free varieties.
In addition to chips, set out some
of these tasty dippers:
Bell pepper slices
Baked mozzarella sticks
Shrimp
Pita chips
Bagel chips
Jicama sticks
Mini rice cakes
Make sure you have enough —
Don’t disappoint guests by running out of munchies or drinks.
Here’s how to figure out how
much you need to prepare:
If you’re having 8 to 10
guests, figure on three
different appetizers. For
up to 16 guests, plan four
or five appetizers.
For non-alcoholic drinks,
plan on two 16-ounce cups
per person. Plan on about
two glasses of wine or three
beers per person.
To have enough ice for
drinks, as well as to keep
drinks cold in a cooler, get
about a pound and a half
of ice per person.
These game day recipes will score big with the crowd at your house. You can find more delicious ways to
homegate at www.eatwholly.com.

Guacamole Chicken Taquitos
Yield: 10 to 12
1 tube pre-made pizza crust (thin)
1 7-ounce package Wholly Guacamole dip
1 red bell pepper cut into small strips
Roll out uncooked pizza dough on counter.
Use football or other shaped cookie cutter to
cut pizza dough and place on cookie sheet sprayed
lightly with oil.
Cook dough according to packaging instructions.
Allow to thoroughly cool.
When cool, spread with guacamole and use
cheese shreds and pepper to create football laces
and markings.
Optional: Plate on a bed of shredded lettuce,
and use sour cream to create field yard lines.
Yield: 28 taquitos
1 orange, juiced
1 lime, juiced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
6 tablespoons canola oil, divided
8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
1/3 cup minced yellow onion
2 tablespoons cilantro, minced
1 7-ounce package Wholly Guacamole
28 corn tortillas
Mix together orange juice, lime juice, salt,
pepper, chili powder, cumin and 3 tablespoons
canola.
Add to chicken and marinate for 20 to
30 minutes.
Heat remaining canola oil over medium
high heat.
Remove chicken from marinade. Reserve
marinade for later.
Cook chicken for 3 minutes on one side.
Flip over and cook for another 3 minutes.
Add reserved marinade, turn heat to low,
and allow to simmer for 20 minutes.
Uncover, and continue cooking for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and cool for 15 minutes.
Shred chicken into a separate pan. Coat with
a little of the reduced sauce — don’t use all of
it or the taquitos will be oily.
Mix chicken with guacamole, cilantro
and onion.
Warm tortillas, between wet paper towels,
in the microwave (about 5 at a time), or by
dipping them into a hot pan with a few tablespoons of oil.
Add about 2 tablespoons filling to each tortilla.
Roll up and skewer with a toothpick to hold it
together.
For best results, prepare deep fryer according
to manufacturer’s instructions, and fry in batches
for 2 minutes. When all taquitos have been fried,
warm them up in a 350°F oven for 10 minutes.
Avocado Cream Cheese Dip
Serves: 6
1 8-ounce package cream cheese
1 7-ounce package Wholly Guacamole
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 lime, juiced
1 tablespoon cilantro, minced
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
2 cups sour cream
3 tablespoons chipotle peppers in
adobo sauce, pureed
1 cup 3-cheese blend shredded cheese
1/2 cup green onion, sliced
3/4 cup Roma tomatoes, cored, seeded
and diced
Allow cream cheese to soften and warm to room
temperature, about 30 minutes.
Whip cream cheese at medium speed for 3 minutes to fluff. Add guacamole and beat for another
minute.
Season mix with 1/4 teaspoon salt, half of lime
juice and cilantro.
Transfer mixture to a 9 x 9-inch pan, and dust
with chili powder.
Mix together sour cream, chipotle, 1/2 teaspoon
salt and the rest of the lime juice.
Add to pan as the second layer.
Top with cheese; garnish with green onion and
tomatoes.
