AZTLAN ACADEMY: COMING TO YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD?

By Michelle Malkin
July 12, 2006

So, Karl Rove gave his "We are all Americans" speech to the National
Council of La Raza--The Race--yesterday. Today, my syndicated column
digs into the millions of dollars in Bush administration federal
education grants The Race has received for its nationwide charter
school initiative.

It's bad enough the White House lent its prestige to The Race's annual
conference. But did you know the Bush administration has forked over
millions of federal tax dollars directly to The Race?

According to GOP Rep. Charlie Norwood of Georgia, The Race snapped up
$15.2 million in federal grants last year alone and more than $30
million since 1996. Undisclosed amounts went to get-out-the-vote
efforts supporting La Raza political positions. The U.S. Department of
Education funneled nearly $8 million in taxpayer grants to the group
for a nationwide charter schools initiative.

You may remember the reconquista school in Los Angeles whose principal
teaches ethnic separatism along with Aztec math. The Race was a
co-sponsor of that school with extremist activists from MECHA. Remember
this interview with the principal of the school, La Academia Semillas
del Pubelo:

"We don't want to drink from a White water fountain, we have our own
wells and our natural reservoirs and our way of collecting rain in our
aqueducts. We don't need a White water fountain. So the whole issue of
segregation and the whole issue of the Civil Rights Movement is all
within the box of White culture and White supremacy. We should not
still be fighting for what they have. We are not interested in what
they have because we have so much more and because the world is so much
larger. And ultimately the White way, the American way, the neo
liberal, capitalist way of life will eventually lead to our own
destruction."

Turns out there are more where that one came from, folks.

I have found dozens of other publicly-subsidized charter schools
sponsored by The Race and funded with our money, including:

*Aztlan Academy in Tuscon, Arizona. According to The Race, the school's
success rests on "Aztlan's ability to integrate a meaningful Chicano
Studies program into their lives, language, and academics, as a means
of developing their intellects as well as their pride and self-esteem."
The school's name--a reference to a mythical swath of the vast
Southwestern U.S. expanse, which Latino activists claim is their
rightful homeland and which they seek to reconquer for Mexico--says it
all.

*Mexicayotl Academy in Nogales, Arizona. Who needs the three R's? At
Mexicayotl, it's all about the three M's: me, me, me! The school's
program is "structured and developed around the concepts of identity,
culture, and language." Second mission: supporting local ethnic
lobbying efforts "to right social injustices by educating the community
and helping create social change." Under "greatest achievements," the
school's website lists its participation in a "Peace & Dignity Run;"
its visit from Rigoberta Menchu (the Marxist academic fraud from
Guatemala who lied her way to a Nobel Peace Prize); and its sponsorship
of
the local annual D=EDa de los Muertos (the Mexican holiday).

*The Dolores Huerta Preparatory High School in Pueblo, Colorado. It's
named after the far-Left Latina labor union activist who recently
railed that "Republicans hate Latinos," praised illegal alien marchers,
and screeched that "We didn't cross the borders, the borders crossed
us" in a hate-filled tirade before Arizona students.

*Academia Cesar Chavez Charter School in St. Paul, Minn. Board of
Directors member Louis Mendoza, an activist Chicano Studies professor,
pushed the school to lobby for the federal DREAM Act (providing
in-state tuition discounts to illegal alien students not available to
legal non-residents). The school's website features one flag on its
front page: the Mexican flag.

The White House will tell you that The National Council of The Race is
a "moderate," mainstream civil rights group. But there's nothing
"moderate" about The Race's advocacy of driver's licenses and in-state
tuition discounts for illegal aliens. Or its opposition to
strengthening security for identity documents and improving cooperation
on immigration enforcement between state, local, and federal
enforcement immigration officials. Or its all-out war on the House
GOP's border security and enforcement-first bill passed last December.

President Bush pays lip service to immigration enforcement and
assimilation, while the White House sends Karl Rove to make nice with
the separatist leaders of The Race and the Bush Education Department
showers our tax dollars on radical Reconquista schools. It doesn't add
up.

Unless, of course, you're using Aztec math.
