Someone vandalized the “Centro de La Raza”. El Centro Cultural de la Raza (the race) was the predecessor of Chicano Park. This is very interesting, but I am very much against it. It is likely to get them more sympathy, more support, and more money for El Centro de la Raza. Of course, they are using it to raise money.
It is not at all impossible to think they staged it themselves to gain sympathy and rally support. Nothing near and dear to them was damaged, such as the murals on the walls of the Centro.
Certainly, they are not getting federal support for these centers of anti-Americanism at this time. So, they are most probably in dire need of funding. El Centro Cultural de la Raza and Chicano Park would fade away if they were not able to continue to present themselves as the “victims”, which they are NOT. They are the anti-American aggressors.
To their amazement, two Cuban Americans discover that murals in Chicano Park honor murderous communist dictators Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. They tortured and murdered probably tens of thousands of political opponents. This park, which supports anti-Americanism, pro-communism, and pro-Raza radical ideology is in San Diego. Their video went viral on Tik Tok and received nearly 600K views in two days. They visited the Park on or around Chicano Park Day 2023.
The two say that it is proof of freedom of speech in the US. But the government has paid for this “free speech” with many millions of tax dollars at the City, State, and national levels. An opposing pro-American view is not allowed in the Park. This is not free speech, but political indoctrination, paid for by our tax dollars. Political views should not be supported on government property with tax dollars at all, much less radical, anti-American ideology.
At the first Chicano Park Day after the Covid pandemic, a likely alcohol-fueled brawl breaks out at the end of the event. This is not exactly stunning news, because brawling and stabbings have not been uncommon in past Chicano Park Day events. The link below begins just as the brawl is getting started.
There were about 9-10 Brown Berets, the Chicano Park militia, but they didn’t look too interested in intervening, just looking on. They definitely weren’t in control of the crowd. A couple of cops were just looking on, too. The brawlers may have had guns. Who would want to wade in there and separate them?
The Chicano Park Steering Committee tries to suppress police presence in Chicano Park. Militant Chicano ideology demonizes the police as well as demonizes America, in general.
Lucky Morales is a Raza supremacist. He is also an activist who tries to make peace between Chicano gangs, apparently to unite them against those whom he regards as the common enemy. In the video below, he says it was “youngsters” who were responsible, but gang-related violence is more likely. The brawlers do not appear to be kids, but full-grown adults.
If anyone is laughing, they are laughing at Lucky, not gang violence. Few think gang violence is funny. At Chicano Park, they teach young people to hate. As the old adage goes, hate ultimately destroys the hater.
Personally, I would much prefer to see young people of whatever ethnic or racial background become happy, productive and prosperous members of society. I just do not believe indoctrinating them into Chicano hate ideology is the way to do it.
Given his handle, “Yaqui Crow”, Morales apparently identifies as Yaqui Indian. There was an attempted genocide against the Yaquis. So, he may have some grievances for that reason. However, the homeland of the Yaquis is in the southern part of the Mexican state of Sonora. It was the Mexican government that attempted to exterminate the Yaqui tribe. Many Yaquis sought refuge in America to escape the Mexican campaign of extermination.
Considering this history, one might think Lucky Morales should redirect his anger toward Mexico rather than America. About 100 years ago, America may well have given refuge to his ancestors.
Rodolfo Corky GonzalesThese are two excerpts from a speech made by Rodolfo “Corky” Gonzales in 1969 at UCLA, one of the four founders of the radical Chicano political movement. The “Mission” incident he talks about is apparently a then well-known case, in which Chicanos killed a cop in the Mission District of San Francisco in 1969. The Chicanos were members of radical Chicano organizations, including the Brown Berets de Aztlan. See the video description for a link.
These revolutionary ideas are still taught in Chicano studies classes in universities and high schools across the nation. The ashes of Corky Gonzales are scattered in Chicano Park in San Diego, according to the Chicano Park Steering Committee chairman, Tomasa Camarillo. The Chicanos consider the park to be “sacred”, as the first piece of reconquered land.
A Chongo (monkey) is a slur for the police and “vato” means “guy” or in this case presumably a Chicano street tough. The “Comancheros” was a group that terrorized innocent ranchers, whom they claimed were living on land that belonged to them.
Corky Gonzales is honored in the historical mural at Chicano Park, along with others, such as communist dictators, Fideo Castro and Che Guevara. He is fourth from the left in this image of the historical mural.
Reies Tijerina was one of the four founders of the militant Chicano political movement. This is an excerpt from his talk at UCLA in 1969 where he declared that La Raza would take over the entire American continent, north, and south. He mentions that this mestizo racial supremacy theory is based on the book by Jose Vasconcelos, who was the major pro-Nazi propagandist in Latin America at the start of World War II.
Though he says La Raza will dominate “with peace”, Reies Tijerina was infamous for his armed raid on a courthouse in Tierra Amarilla, New Mexico, where he hoped to kidnap a DA that opposed him. His men shot two police officers in that raid, both men and the DA were Hispanic. Tijerina wrote in his biography that his biggest enemies had always been other Hispanics, who wanted to live the American way of life. When he was sent to prison, he was diagnosed as being a psychopath.
Background
Tijerina is one of the Chicano leaders honored in the historical mural at Chicano Park in San Diego, along with communist dictators, Castro and Che Guevara. He’s third from the right in the image below.
The officer, who was killed, was going to testify against Tijerina. He was brutally beaten to death shortly before the trial. They put his body in his vehicle and pushed it off a cliff into a ravine to make it look like an accident. They did not have enough evidence to charge anyone, but it was thought fairly certain to have been Tijerina’s men who murdered him to prevent him from testifying against Tijerina. See the book, “Tijerina and the Courthouse Raid” by Peter Nabokov for more information about Reies Tijerina.
Compared Himself to Nazi
In an Interview with the Albuquerque Journal, Tijerina compared himself to Nazi war criminal, Rudolf Hess. See the image below.
