Organization on the defensive over its name

DOWNTOWN SAN DIEGO – The National Council of La Raza spends most of its time protecting and advancing the rights of Latinos through advocacy and community work. But as it wraps up its convention downtown, it has found itself defending its name.

sORRY, JANET...but since you grew up in a world of Mexicans and Chicano nationalists......you have no clue....NO ONE outside of Mexican-Americans and Mexicans refer to themselves as "La RAZA"......you won't find or hear South Americans or most Central AMericans (unless they're illegal aliens in the United States) or Cubans collectively refer to themselves as "La RAZA" .....
it's a rather crude, in-your-face term used by Chicano separatists like the founders of NCLR and LULAC. Give it up...you can't hide your racist, ethno-supremacist origins nor intent and "LA RAZA" hypocritically smears anyone that opposes its open-borders, ethno-supremacist, pro-illegal alien agenda as "racist".

Yeah, right! They are masters at obfuscating issues! Raza literally means ethnicity as in la raza mexicana (of mexican descent), la raza italiana (of italian descent), la raza japones (of japanese descent). Ethnicity and race are synonymous in latin countries (and I include portugues, french, italian and spanish speaking countries in this).
Raza does NOT mean people or community in general terms, RAZA is based on your heritage, on the blood of your forefathers, if you will.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

[quote]Translating our name as 'the race' is not only inaccurate, it is factually incorrect. 'Hispanic' is an ethnicity, not a race. . . . Hispanics can be and are members of any and all races.â€

They can change their name, but their radical agenda will undoubtedly remain.
