What's wrong with Aztlan, white left? Do you feel just the same about it as the SOS Nazis? Speak up, I can't hear you.

Nazis, Aztlan and Indymedia

You white folks might have noticed that the white nationalists always complain, endlessly, about Aztlan.

Well without saying ther e is no difference between the white right and the white left, I will only this.

Any article on this website that comes from a Chicano nationalist or indigenist way of looking at things doesn't have a chance of making it to a spot among the most approved column in the center of the Indymedia webpage.

Only tame posts that come from tame people get that.

Aztlan is too savage for that, I guess.

Just try to get any of these white organizations to do a chant with "Aztlan" in it.

Well, not the ISO or Answer.

The white left wants a tame bunch of Chicanos who will follow lamely and obediently behind them, while they control the scene and talk on the bullhorns.

They'd never dare do that in a Black protest, or in a Black neighborhood.

Not that they still don't see themselves as out to educate the savages about how to "really" be liberated.

It just goes with the turf.

I watched Indymedia posting pictures of Danza Cuatemoc - confusing people in our community about who had been killed and injured in the accident in Nebraska.

I knew that this would happen, but I stayed quiet.

I mean, how do you tell people that they don't know anything about your community, that _they_ control what gets said about your community in their media anyway, just like with the mainstram media, and that they don't _really_ care any more than the mainstream media - they just want to look good.

Well, what else is new.?

Nothing.

This will probably be "hidden," just to protect your sensibilities, while all kinds of ugly racist comments from the SOS Nazis stays up...
