Only One KKK and Its "White" (tags)
In response to the ignorant post below about a "hispanic KKK," there is no such thing. There is only one KKK and it is made up of misguided people of European descent who falsely claim this land as well as a bogus sense of racial purity.

MEChA meets SAL CASTRO (DNC Guest) (tags)
This is a photo of two Cal Poly MEChA students (Jessica and Esther wearing mecha shirts)with Sal Castro. He is a high school teacher for Belmont HS. Back in the 60s (1968)he was incarcerated for advising students to organize against the racism within the school system. The documentary called "CHICANO!" has footage and interviews with Sal Castro. After the blowouts in East LA and the release of Sal Castro, MEChA was founded at a conference at UC Santa Barbara in 1969. How ironic is that!
Here we regrouped at MEChA headquarters to celebrate our victory!

MEChA students meet Sal Castro (tags)
Esther and Jessica of Cal Poly Pomona (wearing MEChA shirts)meet Sal Castro on the streets of LA Thurday August 17 at approx 9pm. Sal was invited by Gloria Molina to attend the DNC. Sal Castro, a highschool teacher at Belmont HS was arrested in 1968 for conspiracy as he advised and helped Chicana and Chicano students organize protest against the racist education system. One year later as a result of these blowouts, MEChA was founded... what a coincidence. See link on bottom for more history on Sal Castro and the Chicano Movement.
