About Me
I am a UCLA graduate with a Bachelor's degree in English and a minor in Chicana/o studies. I am a school teacher who enjoys inspiring our youth to realize their full potential.
I was born and raised in Hollywood (Echo Park) CA, lived in Ocala (Florida) for a year, and just recently relocated to New York City! I am married to a wonderful New Yorican who is from Queens (NY) and graduated from NYU (I like to say the UCLA of New York.) We enjoy bettering our community as when we lived in LA, we spent our time motivating inner city youth; I was a Dance instructor and he was a basketball coach for El Centro del Pueblo (an inner city community center.)
I love to travel as I have climbed the pyramids of Teotihuacan (Mexico), witnessed the depths of the Grand Canyon, explored the Navajo reservation, Europe, Africa, the Caribbean, and visited countless states including Hawaii...
I am a Chicana (Mexican/ Native Amer.) who associates my beliefs with the ideologies of El movimiento and challenge any who claim that I do not have the rights that I am entitled to as a U.S. citizen (not "illegal" as some ignorant idiots suspect.) Forgive me if I am not brainwashed to think that this country is open to all its citizens, as it is not and racism should be abolished.

+2 raves Yes, that statement is a bit biased. Perhaps it can be considered hateful? *LOL* -
+2 raves I agree. The depression is what made alcohol legal. Why not legalize it and tax it, already.

I just returned from Amsterdam and found the city much more peaceful and seemingly safer than over here... Mind you, marijuana is legal there. It seems as though the illegality of the drug is what causes many problems, not the drug itself. If it was legal, it would not be as taboo and thus not be something in which young folks are so eager to try...
Anyhow, let the guy smoke the herb. Alcohol and cigarettes are much more detrimental to one's health and that is legal. Besides, Phelps's ability to swim to that degree while taking hits from the bong should be yet another testament that marijuana is not as harmful to the body as many believe. (more) -

But yes, I agree with this article... and on the contrary to what the union says, I am open to performance based incentives. I also think this whole teaching to a test is not successful. (more) -

What may also be good is if Mccain gets an offer. Something in the military. I think Mccain has something to offer and I'm sure Obama would like to use it. Then it would be fun to watch the Mccainiacs scramble because now they really can't hate Obama without revealing their racism as even Mccain would be endorsing him. I guess we will find out tomorrow.

Second of all, you obviously have no clue on what it is like for a minority in this country. I'm a Mexican/Navajo mix and I completely understand Michelle's comment. She did not say she did not love or feel lucky to be born in this country, she stated she finally felt proud... meaning INCLUDED in this country.
It amazes me just how much descendants from immigrants are willing to attack minorities.
And last, OBAMA WON! If you don't like it, you are very welcome to go back to your motherland. (more) -

A.I. is a very good player but the thing about basketball is that a good player alone can't win a championship. It's got to be team work. I think it will be my LAKERS who will take it this year. I mean we got to the finals without our center. The Celtics beat us with an incomplete team. This year we are unstoppable!
