Jose Angel Cutierrez, Professor, University of Texas, Arlington WE remain a HUNTED people. Now you think you have a destiny to fulfill in THIS land that has historically been OURS for 40 thousand years and WE ARE a NEW MESTIZO nation. THIS is OUR HOMELAND, we CAN NOT, we WILL NOT, and we MUST NOT be made illegal in OUR OWN HOMELAND. We are NOT I-M-M-I-G-R-A-N-T-S that came from another country to another country, we are migrants, FREE TO TRAVEL the length and breadth of the Americas because WE BELONG HERE. We just have to survive. We have an aging WHITE America. They are NOT making babies. They are DYING. Its a matter of time. The EXPLOSION is in OUR population. Antonio Villaraigosa, Mayor of Los Angeles It is not enough to elect LATINO leadership. If they are supporting legislation that denies the undocumented, they DO NOT BELONG IN OFFICE friends, they DO NOT BELONG HERE. Fabian Nunez, Speaker of the California State Assembly And those REDNECKS that are out there making decisions for the betterment of their communities, WILL think twice BEFORE they push forward anti-immigrant legislation against our community. You can be as revolutionary as you want, you can be Chicano Nationalists, you can believe in the concept of ATZLAN, you can believe in the concept of multiculturalism, we dont have to give OUR lives, we are not at that point, but we can give a little. Herman Baca, Chicano Committee on Civil Rights The Nation of AZTLAN. You know, when the extreme right-wing talks about the Nation of AZTLAN, I guess its from a guilty conscience, because they know what they did in Texas. Armando Navarro, Professor, University of California at Riverside We have the armament, we have the infantry, we have the artillery, we have to combine it under one organized command so that we can .... war against those RACISTS that are trying to ...and discriminate .... Art Torres, Chairman, California Democratic Party. ....the last GASP of of WHITE America, understand that. And people say to me on the Senate floor when I was in the Senate, why are you fighting so hard for affirmative action programs? and I tell my WHITE colleagues, because YOU ARE GOING TO NEED THEM. Joe Baca, California State Senator When we look out in the audience and we see la familia, la raza, you know its a great feeling and I started to think about that, it reminded me of a book that we all read, that we all heard about, you know... Paul Revere, when he was saying, the British are coming, the British are coming... well, the LATINOS ARE COMING, THE LATINOS ARE COMING. So thats what this agenda is about. Its about assuring that we increase OUR numbers at every level. And let me tell you, we cant go back, you know, were in a CIVIL WAR, and united, LATINOS WILL WIN Tom Tancredo, Colorado Congressman The defacto elimination of the border between Mexico and the United States...I believe that the debate revolving around our immigration policy should REFLECT THE FACT THAT THIS PHENOMENON IS UNDERWAY.
