La Raza / Aztlan Flag Raising in Chicano Park – Racial Aspects

This video of Aztlan and La Raza flag raising at Chicano Park in San Diego is explained in terms of La Raza racial supremacy and mestizo racial theory of Jose Vasconcelos. The flags of Aztlan and La Raza are raised every year at Chicano Park in San Diego, during the Park Day celebration. Aztlan is the American Southwest, which Chicano militants claim as their national territory. They say Chicano Park is the first part of Aztlan to be taken from the USA.

The three-faced figure in the second flag symbolizes the mestizo race (La Raza), which has been created by the mixture of the white Hispanic with the Indian. “La Raza” is a racial supremacy doctrine that was formulated by Jose Vasconcelos in his book “La Raza Cosmica” (the cosmic race), published in 1925, a time when racial supremacy theories were very popular around the world.

Vasconcelos was a revolutionary, a very prominant educator and philosopher, as well as a virulent hater of the USA. He was also the most important propagandist for the Nazis in Latin America at the beginning of World War II. The Nazis exploited his mestizo racial theory to try to gain influence in Latin America via promotion of “La Raza” racialism in an attempt to gain allies to fight the USA in the war.

On top of everything, there is a bill in Congress (HR-486) to make this park an affiliate of the National Park System, so they can obtain more federal grants to spread their anti-American propaganda, hateful mestizo racial identity ideology and the idea of a hostile takeover of the Southwestern U.S. as the Chicano national homeland, Aztlan.

Flag-Waving Proud Boys Reason With Chicanos, Get Attacked

A small group of Proud Boys were attacked at Chicano Park, because they wanted to show the American flag in the park and peacefully argue with socialists. The May Day 2019 march was planned to end in Chicano Park. Instead the ran into members of the Chicano Park political cult, who end up violently attacking them as the march begins to arrive at the park. The San Diego Police Department had to pepper-spray some of the radical, anti-American Chicanos and their extreme socialist allies in order to subdue them.

This was at the time a brand new Proud Boy chapter in San Diego. Not sure that they were even aware of what Chicano Park was like until they walked into this situation. They had just heard that the May Day March was ending there.

Chicano Gang-banger Enraged by US Flag

Jesse and I went to Friendship Park on the evening of Novmember 15, 2018, where the Caravan demonstrations have been taking place. There we ran into a member of the Oceanside Pascoli gang and his family. They were enraged that I was carrying an American flag and wearing a USA cap.

You can understand why this guy is frustrated, he said he’s a chief in the Pascoli gang in Oceanside and was probably looking forward to getting new gang member recruits from this caravan. Part of the reason Tijuanans are turning against the caravan, is they know most of them are likely to end up being stuck in Tijuana and they think it will add to their already terrible crime problem. There are still many Haitian refugees in Tijuana from two years ago.

Trump Supporters Abuse, Deface American Flag

Trump supporters are shown abusing, defacing and desecrating the American flag. Flag desecration is normally offensive to those, who consider themselves to be patriots. Congress outlawed flag desecration, but the Supreme Court ruled that it to be protected free speech.

Congress has also attempted to pass a constitutional amendment to protect the flag, but has not been able to pass it. Because abuse of the flag is currently legal and protected speech, however, does not mean that everyone has to like it when Trump supporters do it and put Trump above the flag.

Desecration of the flag is not just about burning the flag in protest, but other uses of the flag, which are not respectful of the flag as a national symbol, such as putting the image of an idolized politician, defacing it with political slogans or flying it upside down. The flag should not be disrespected on either side of the political spectrum, especially not by those, who want to be seen as patriots.

Below, Trump supporters desecrate the American flag by mutilating it with Trump’s face and writing on it.

It doesn’t matter, if it was ever a real flag or not. What matters is that it appears to people to represent the flag. Below is a link to the U.S. Flag Code. It is about flag mutilation.

U.S. Flag Code

If is abusive when the Left desecrates the flag for political purposes, it is still abuse when the Right does it.

Here, a flag with Obama’s image on it. The national symbol should not be defaced and equated to a politician, whether it be Obama, Trump or someone else.

This is an flag that was desecrated at an Occupy LA encampment. If it is offensive when Occupy LA did it, it is also offensive when Trump idolaters do it.

A Trump supporter abusing the flag by cutting holes in it so she can wear it as clothing.

Not a pretty sight. Even if the woman is attractive, it does not make it right.

Muslims abusing the flag by wearing it as a hijab. If it is wrong to wear it as a hijab, it is also wrong to wear as clothing in support of Trump, Obama or for other such political reasons.

More Trump worshippers in Northern California desecrating the American flag by mutilation of it. They are either ignorant of flag etiquette or they just don’t care.

Some Trump supporters seemed to have valued Trump more than the flag and for that which it symbolizes. Of course, Ann Coulter has changed her opinion, as have some others, since this post was originally made. In this book Coulter replaced “God” with “Trump”, which is even more wrong and Obama-like than defacing the American flag. Now, it blasphemous, putting Trump in God’s place.

Sometimes it seems like some Trump supporters borrowed the Obama worshipers’ playbook. I have no problem with supporting his policies that make sense. For me it is the deification of him that is the problem. They put Trump above the flag and other American symbols, even sometimes equating him to God.

Of course, if Trump’s true believers will abuse the flag, it is not too surprising that they do not respect other American icons and institutions, either, such as Capitol building and the constitutional, election-confirmation process.

Certainly, not all, but some of them have a reactionary, fascistoid, revolutionary mentality. The Nation, it’s symbols and institutions do not seem to be of much importance to them. The only thing that really matters is Trump and his movement. In my opinion, this is not “patriotism” at all, but the opposite, messiah worship. It is a personality cult, presenting itself as a patriotic movement.

Barrio Logan Veterans Raise American Flag in Chicano Park

The Hispanic veterans in Barrio Logan have raised the U.S. Flag in their corner of the Chicano Park and have reportedly said the will not take it down until forced to do so. The Chicano Park Steering Committee has in the past (illegally) forbidden them to raise it, except for three days a year, Memorial Day, Independence Day and Veterans Day. It may be possible that the Steering Committee has lifted the ban on the veterans raising their flag on a shorter flagpole in their isolated, very low-visibility corner of the Park due to recent criticism of their ban and to take the pressure off themselves. The American flag is still banned in the center of the Park on the higher, main flagpole. Only the Aztlan flag and La Raza flag are allowed to fly on the main flagpole.

Only the flags of Aztlan, La Raza and Mexico
are allowed to fly freely in Chicano Park
We hope that the veterans will defend their rights. This ban by the Steering Committee has been humiliating and disrespectful of the veterans of Barrio Logan. It is also a violation of their civil rights. All of our great veterans and their civil rights deserve to be fully respected, no matter what their ethnic background. If their rights are being violated by other Hispanics, that still does not make it acceptable or legal. We owe all of our veterans a great debt of gratitude, I think especially our Hispanic veterans, because they served in spite of a history of not always being treated fairly or equally.

The City is responsible, because they allow the Chicano Park Steering Committee, the Brown Berets de Aztlan and their extreme-left allies to trample on the rights of everyone in the Park, who do not kowtow to their radical, anti-American agenda. In return for their support of the Park with our tax money, city politicos get support from the many Hispanic voters, who agree with the extremely anti-American theme of this political Park. Some also support the park evidently without fully realizing how anti-American the ideology is.
