I’m looking forward to this quarter ending and finally having some time to rest. I feel so drained.

Just as y’all scream vote vote vote, I implore y’all to organize organize organize. The real work is on the ground. Voting does not and will not lead to Liberation. Especially if y’all become stagnant after a democratic win, which tends to happen. It’s time to be strategic.

There is a popular proverb that says that where you bury your ombligo, that is where you ought to grow, reproduce, die, and be buried. As a result of international migration, however, which is a multicausal phenomenon...., people are displaced.

The solidarity characteristic of migrant networks manifests itself in multiple ways when a migrant dies in the United States and subsequently repatriated to the community of origin (Felix, 2019). #CCCAS10B #SOLIDARITY

earth is burning and suffering. so many of our plant relatives are being burned after living for thousands of years. this is another example of why land needs to be given back to Indigenous people.

Colonialism is behind this. Capitalism is causing this.

Similarly, Abrego (2006) argues that undocumented youth confront legal barriers and contradictions that often lower the aspirations and impede educational attainment of even the most eager students. #CCCAS10B #undocuyouth

In addition, once accepted into college, financial barriers, discrimination, and feelings of alienation coexist alongside educational success.

Castaneda (2019) highlights that one major issue for undocumented youth living in the border regions is their inability to attend colleges in the nation’s interior, past the U.S. Customs and Border Protection check points. #CCCAS10B #undocuyouth

Dr. Solorzano from Cal State LA, argues that in the “Trial of Dreams” undocumented/undocuqueer youth resisted and challenged U.S. racial terror, detention centers, deportation, policies, and histories that are rooted in white supremacy.

“The Sanctuary Movement combined religious faith and social activism to provide refugee for Central Americans fleeing violence and persecution and to raise awareness of the responsibility associated with U.S. policy in the region”.

[Vane 🤎 @__vannne]

White supremacy is the base of American systems and institutions that have prevented Black people and people of color from generating wealth, having access to resources and services for survival and a quality of education. #CCCAS10B #Whiteness

[Vane 🤎 @__vannne]

The narrative that the “Mexican race” has difficulty assimilating for biological and cultural reasons is problematic because its ignoring the structural barriers, institutionalize racism, policies/laws that have portrayed them unfit for citizenship #CCCSAS10B #assimilation

I was thinking today about the Spanish missions I was told to built and talk about in elementary school without ever being taught that my ancestors were forced to convert to a religion that justifies their genocide.

He was intimidated by my assertiveness, goals of succeeding in higher education, being outspoken, and trying to be independent...I guess his ego and manhood was challenged y no aguanto.

U.S involvement in the development of state-terror and violence in Central American countries (CAC) has caused mass migration, prevented economic and political liberation in CAC, and silences among families and individuals that have experienced trauma. #CCCAS10B #USIsATerrorist
