Racial Disparity – Likelihood of Imprisonment

 

“More than 60% of the people in prison are now racial and ethnic minorities. For Black males in their thirties, 1 in every 10 is in prison or jail on any given day. These trends have been intensified by the disproportionate impact of the “war on drugs,” in which two-thirds of all persons in prison for drug offenses are people of color.”

Man Running Home Naked Is Killed, Shooter Still Not Charged

He leaves behind a 3-year-old daughter and a distressed mother. Now, his family wants answers, and someone held accountable. They wonder why Laguerre has not been arrested. The family has started a facebook page, Justice4Jandei, and a petition on Change.org calling on Florida authorities to charge Laguerre in the case.

Anti-AMERICAN LATINO MUSEUM campaign update Mexica Movement

 

Mexica Movement met with ceo of American Latino Museum on Friday 12/6/13.
When we initially rsvp’d to attend the townhall we were disrespected and denied entrance to attend. After a few emails, we agreed to meet with them in person, and not by phone as they initially proposed. We met with Estuardo Rodriguez, the CEO of the museum and explained to him in much detail why we were not Latinos and how this museum was genocidal. After an hour we came to the agreement that he would allow us the last words of the townhall, all 5 minutes of it. We agreed. The townhall was mainly made up of vendido academics and artists who displayed no interest in representing our people. Known ex-chicanos were proud of embracing the concept of latino. Stay tuned for the video to come. The campaign continues. Check out the report written by the American Latino Museum yourself:
