Linda Chavez and Cesar Chavez

On this very important day when we honor a great American and civil rights leader, Dr. Martin Luther King.  I want to also honor two great Hispanic-American civil rights leaders, the late Cesar Chavez and Linda Chavez. While the work of Cesar Chavez is well known, the work of civil rights leader Linda Chavez is not as commonly known.  

Linda Chavez is head of the Center for Equal Opportunity (www.ceousa.org), which works tirelessly for equal rights for all people. Here are some quotes from her website:

      Bilingual Education

"Multiculturalists have a firm grip on both elementary and secondary schools and the universities. Their ideology of racial and ethnic difference risks balkanizing our multiracial society. Students who don't speak English are locked away in special programs that try to maintain native languages rather than teach English, often without their parents' consent. In many urban schools, African American students are fed a racialist "Afrocentric" curriculum of dubious merit.

CEO seeks to promote educational policies grounded in America's motto: e pluribus unum, "out of many, one."

         Affirmative Action

"Racial preferences are now a well established part of employment, education, and voting rights practices. The federal government runs 19 programs for "disadvantaged" bankers. Even adoption agencies are required to consider race when finding homes for parent-less children.

CEO supports colorblind public policies and seeks to block the expansion of racial preferences and to prevent their use in employment, education, and voting."

 I also want to condemn one of the most racist men in America.  AZ Representative, Raúl Grijalva for spreading hate against non-Hispanics and supporting illegal immigration and anti-Americanism at the tax payers expense. He is the new David Duke.
