There has always been this sense of pride amongst Hispanics of all nations. There pride in Spanish, Spanish culture, Catholicism, etcetera... So strong is this pride that it has created a whole sub-culture of Hispanic life.
But isn't being proud of speaking Spanish, reveling in Spanish culture, and Praising your catholic faith like saying "Hey Cortes' thanks for coming here, kicking our butts, eliminating our culture, raping our women, and reducing us to third world nations by stealing all of our gold, and erasing our history"
Spanish is the language of your conquers, Jesus, THEIR, god. Meso America once had strong and mighty cultures in the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas. And all that was lost to Spain and yet you sit and revel in your "Spanish heritage".
Please Explain....
