Answer 2

The Nation of Aztlan (NOA), first organized in the early 1990s, is a California-based Hispanic nationalist organization that claims to represent the desires and aspirations of the Hispanic community. The organization calls for the United States to return "Aztlan" territory - Aztlan being the mythic homeland of the Mexican people, or Aztecs, which according to legend is found in the American Southwest or Northern Mexico. The group's nationalist message is blurred by frequent appeals anti-Semitism, anti-Zionism, homophobia and other expressions of hatred.

Answer 3

No states come to mind when I think of Aztlan. No part of Mexico outside of Mexico City was part of the Aztec society, so it has nothing to do with the Aztecs. Further, those Iberians, mostly Spaniards, who went to the Southwest of the US, were from Mexico, not directly from Iberia. Moreover, much of that land was lost to the US during the Mexican-American War. That's how war works.

Answer 4

My standard Aztlan reply:

The myth of Aztlan can best be explained by California's Santa Barbara School District's Chicano Studies textbook, "The Mexican American Heritage" by East Los Angeles high school teacher Carlos Jimenez. On page 84 there is a redrawn map of Mexico and the United States, showing Mexico with a full one-third more territory, all of it taken back from the United States. On page 107, it says "Latinos are now realizing that the power to control Aztlan may once again be in their hands."

Shown are the "repatriated" eight or nine states including Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington. According to the school text, Mexico is supposed to regain these territories as they rightly belong to the "mythical" homeland of Aztlan. On page 86, it says "...a free-trade agreement...promises...if Mexico is to allow the U.S. to invest in Mexico...then Mexico should...be allowed to freely export...Mexican labor. Obviously this would mean a re-evaluation of the border between the two countries as we know it today." Jimenez's Aztlan myth is further amplified at MEChA club meetings held at Santa Barbara Public Schools..

The book, paid for by American tax payers, cites no references or footnotes, leaving school children totally dependent on their teacher to separate fact from opinion and political propaganda. The book teaches separatism, victimization, nationalism, completely lacks patriotism towards the United States, and promotes an open border policy. The book is 100 percent editorial -- the opinions of the author.

Answer 5

fantasyland, nevernever land, places like that you mean?

Spain controlled the SW of the now USA until some time after the Mexican Independance. Mexico had control of the SW USA for less than 20 years. So Aztlan is truly a fantasy.

Answer 10

How long would it take the American Southwest to turn back into a third world country like that cesspool Mexico. You are not capable of building a thriving society and maintaining it. All you want to do is take over a country that has already been built--thieves, disgusting thiving criminals. I laugh at you. You have no idea how many are waiting for you to make your move. Come on--try it.

Answer 11

I can't think of anything but Mexico. But since Aztlan is a myth why even bother?
