Standard Aztlan answer:
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.

Aztlan does not exist except in your mind. Americans dont get trained to do anything except at a job or career. You make no sense.

i'm Jewish too. i've got self belief that if insults and lies are directed purposely at Jews, no longer different Semitic communities, then it skill in my way of thinking that this term isn't being over used via Jews-it fairly is getting used because of the extra advantageous volume of Anti-Jewish/anti-Israel/anti-Zionist hatred, that seems to be pervasive at this element in time. we'd,nt have any logical reason to experience the ought to preserve ourselves-if there have been no longer something being suggested or completed that would warrant our doing so. it is not any longer racism, because of the fact we are,nt a race-we are a faith. real-there are jews of each shade international extensive, yet we nevertheless proceed to be a faith. I don,t experience that we are able to motivate using the term "Anti-Semitism"-it,s our acceptance of our being attacked on many fronts.the type of hatred could be chanced on, any the place that there are Jews.Why do you think of that it marginalizes different contributors of the Semitic team? Why is it unrecognizable to you as to who hates you? I choose that it became,nt a term that regarded unique to Jews-yet all you ought to do is to check out the 1st 2 solutions you,ve won-and are available to a determination as to in case you think of that those are loving and candy solutions. i've got self belief that as quickly as someone or a team is being maligned as Jews have been because of the fact the commencing up of time-thats it,s ultimate to know it for what it fairly is, this is stated as Anti-Semitism if the hatred is directed at Jews. it sort of feels like an unusual stance which you're taking, if in actuality you relatively are a Jew.

What's all this about Jews? When did we start worshipping the Jews? No one hates Mexicans...only the illegal ones. And the whole idea of Aztlan defames itself.

The Media is not training Americans!
The Media is alienating and manipulating Americans with low IQ.
That's all.
Ignore the corporate media! it is unhealthy for us with higher IQ.

I agree centurion! The US media portrayed us as bandidos and broachos in the past.
Just look at all Hollywood and Broadway movies... John Wayne was a hero and Pancho Villa was frito bandito.

aztlan is a fictional place. Most mexicans are part spanish descent, they are european ancestry too.
There are plenty of catholics in the USA.
And no its not a war on immigrants, its a war on lawlessness.
