At the end of the book, the
authors describe a
commemoration that was
held at the Alamo in 1999. There were thousands of people there–one
attendee they noticed was “an Anglo graduate student from the
University of Texas, filled with passionate intensity…plain,
metal-rimmed glasses rested down on his nose, and his goatee was
trimmed a la Leon Trotsky.”
They also noticed a Hispanic family with
three girls ages 8 to 12. The
father, a CPA with a Wharton degree, photographed his family in front
of the limestone walls of the chapel and told them briefly about the
Alamo, telling the girls that “it stood for courage and integrity,
virtues they needed to cultivate in their own lives.”
At that point, the Anglo graduate student arrived at the chapel door.
He asked, “Why are you even here today? Don’t you know what this place
stands for? It represents the rape and destruction of your people.”

...and then the Hispanic family kicked him to death, and we all lived happily ever after.

...and La Raza kidnapped his family, held them for ransom and then beheaded them....
ReplyDeleteI miss the America I grew up in, where race/ethnicity is what made us so great. All = together = America =Americans. You know, like the Pledge of Allegiance?
ReplyDeleteAt the large Corp where I work, one doesn't have to go far to see one slogan saying "We are all one team", and often on the same page "Celebrate diversity". The disrespect to the English language boggles my mind.
